  • LOST SOMETHING?

    Some people have a knack for losing things … not me. I can tell you countless stories of how things I have ‘misplaced’ – wallets, phones, sunnies – have miraculously found their way back to me. And now I can add to that list a one hundred dollar bill. Padma and I received a card

    In November of 1985 and January of 1986, I travelled to Honduras on assignment for the Asociación Hondureña de Ecología. They asked me to document a variety of environmental issues.
