King Street Shelter, a part of The Working Centre, is home to one hundred people. It is not a drop in centre. Tess Romahn, coordinator, tells me about fifty percent of the residents have addictions due to an accident or pain medication abuse. She estimates one in five people are here after being renovicted, something I found really shocking. There is one refugee couple, who are slightly segregated and have additional staff member attention. There are many areas---quiet and active, art, tv common and conversational. Larger personal items are secured safely in the basement. The kitchen is open from 5:30 a.m. to midnight or later. There is a safe use room, which saves lives and is controversial among the residents.

About 5,000 to 5,500 migrant workers are needed every year in Essex County to support the production of tomatoes, other vegetables and flowers grown in the fields and, increasingly, in greenhouses. You often see these workers, mostly men, riding on bikes on county roads or sometimes talking on a street corner in uptown Leamington on Friday nights. Collette Broeders, a visual artist, and I wondered who these people were and if we could document some of their stories. We did our research and made our conclusions. The result is "After Work", an intermedia presentation. You may see Collette's video contribution at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMcCLQ5-Rbw You may see our handmade book, the "orange book", at Windsor Workers Education Centre. You may our framed prints and videos at Leamington Arts Centre in July, 2016. Collette and I gratefully acknowledge financial support from Windsor Workers Education Centre Green Shield Canada Fund.

ZIMBABWE. Chiweshe. November, 2012. The Salvation Army transferred than later dismissed the Howard Hospital Chief Medical Officer. His loss, whatever the real reasons for his departure, leave a large number of people in the hospital catchment area vulnerable or worse. Foreign aid has left. Patients refuse to go to the hospital; they want their doctor. This is a portrait series of people I met over the years or ones the doctor recommended I visit. All are deeply affected by this "normal" transfer of a cherished doctor.

"Kenya: How is Your Condition?" is an essay from the archive. The earliest photos are from my first trip to Africa in 1985 which whetted my appetite for sub-Saharan Africa which continues to this day. The bulk of the photos were made in 1997. I like to think of these as my hommage to Cartier-Bresson -- he was definitely on my mind. The visit to the Dadaab Refugee Camps opened my eyes to social themes which I explore to this day.

The Howard Hospital is a rural mission hospital located in Zimbabwe. The Hospital is overrun by patients due to nation wide hospital closings in December 2008. The Howard is in a rural area and hunger is mounting due to a long drought and the time of the year. The situation is exacerbated by a collapsing economy and a national unity government political dispute.
