This
is it -- the launch of my 365 Project. I turned 60 today and vowed to
take a photo daily for the year. At least I vowed to give it a try.
This is more than a self portrait. That's Jesse Hall and the Mizzou
columns in the background -- the second-most photographed scene in
Missouri. The domed hall is the administration building and the columns
are all that is left from the 1892 fire that destroyed the original
university building.
I've been an associate professor at the
Missouri School of Journalism for a decade now. It's the oldest and most
famous journalism school in the world. For journalists, a gig here is
like getting a work permit to Valhalla.
