These are some street portraits I got around downtown. I asked each of the subjects for a fact about themselves which others might be surprised by. The responses are beneath each photo.
Billy; surprising fact: has a birthday coming up this week (I think 73). Billy was also a practicing physician for many years. |
Threese; surprising fact: she takes leftover food from city schools to area shelters (all on her bike!) |
Stacy; surprising fact: Is a grandfather 3x |
Jimmy; surprising fact: his mom used to smack him around with a spoon |
Kimberly; surprising fact: she went to school for psychology (and currently owns/runs Idiom on Chapel Street) |
Shoshanna; surprising fact: she is a master scone baker (self-taught), her favorite creation is gingerbread chocolate scone |
Seth; surprising fact: he once had a pet Boa named Magellan that bit Seth in the face |
Kelly and Andrew; surprising fact: they can get onto any rooftop in New Haven |
Clara; surprising fact: she’s a poet (but never lets anyone know it) |
Ama; surprising fact: she used to play in a street band in Brazil |
