Yeah, as it turned out, there was not much overlap on the Venn diagram of Ansel fans and Twitter users. I don't think we got more than a hundred. Oh well.
But we did have three fantastic programs to comemorate his birthday here in the Event Space yesterday, and we recorded the best one: His former assistant, Andrea Stillman, whose latest book is Looking at Ansel Adams: The Photographs and the Man. Listening to her was like being a fly on the wall in his studio - it was fantastic. (I'll post the link here when it goes up on our YouTube channel) But he sounded like he had a really great sense of humor and listening to her I wish I had met him! She also spoke about how he printed and how it evolved over the years. It was a real treat andvery interesting!
