It has been nearly sixteen years since my father died. He spent his career working in public service for USAID and the US foreign aid agencies that preceded it. His values were inspired by the New Deal.
A moment to remember José Francisco Borges, master of the woodcut. Borges was Brazil’s greatest living folk artist, and Pernambuco's "Living Treasure", when he passed away on July 26th.
Like many Haitian artists Frantz Zephirin has fond it virtually impossible to work in his homeland of Haiti during this experience of extreme gang violence.
