Just learned that the Demolition Derby: Crash for Clunkers piece I shot last August at the Delaware County Fair placed 2nd in the sports video category of the Best of Photojournalism 2010, awarded by the National Press Photographers Association.

My sister and I long wondered why the stream of water that ran from the woods by our childhood home was the “crick,” but a similar stream next to our grandparents’ place in Mecca, Ohio, was “the brook.” I was thinking of that today as I read the announcement that the nearest body of water

An adorable little valentine directed and produced for TIME.com by Lauren Fleishman & Yoni Brook. The headline could have just read “Ahhhhhhhh.” You can see their photos of the kids here.

Not the clown suit. That’s not what I mean. I’m entirely too coulrophobic for that. No, it’s another thing. Long-time readers of this blog (or long-time knowers of yours truly)  may remember this story. This Walmart ad that played in last week’s AFC Championship Game gave me flashbacks. Even as I laughed out loud.

When E. Benjamin Skinner first approached TIME magazine with his extraordinary story of the Haiti earthquake, we soon learned that Ben not only had an incredible story he could write. He also had many visual and audio elements that could create a compelling multimedia piece. Using Ben’s elements, editor Jim Fields and I put together

My job is great fun most of the time. It has variety, depth and work that makes me laugh out loud. Like any job, being a director and boss in a large organization has its hassles and annoyances. But a great privilege of my job is that I get to inform people about things that

Here’s the video version of our year-end look at the top viral videos.

It’s 2010, and I want my jet pack. More than 35 years ago, as I started reading science fiction and watching Star Trek, I figured we’d be much further along by now. Space 1999 and 2001: A Space Odyssey seemed like they were right on track when they first came out. In the 70s, we

It’s never a good day to be homeless, but today is especially brutal. There’s a winter advisory in New York. We’re expecting wind gusts of up to 50 mph, making the low temps in the 20s feel like the Arctic. And this man stands out in it, camped near the blue delivery door of the

If you buy a house on Verbenia Ct in Satellite Beach, Florida, be prepared to keep up with those with a Jones for Christmas. Every house on this cul de sac block goes all out for the holidays. On Christmas Eve, cars line up to parade past homes with inflatable lawn ornaments and thousands of
