I was asked to photograph the Women of Achievement award banquet a couple weeks back. It was honoring Helen Thomas, Suzanne Geha and a few other high achieving women. For those of you who don't know her, she is the most senior member of the White House press corps. She has asked the first question to every president for the past 40 years. That's pretty neat, huh? She even has an HBO documentary about her! That's when you know you've made it ;) I can't say I was terribly familiar with her (okay, maybe not at all), but I was emphatically informed by a woman I was trying to get a photo of that she is "a true icon." Alright, I believe you! She is pretty impressive and she is also Suzanne Geha's aunt who was also being honored for being impressive in her own right. I was certainly honored to be part of the event.
