MY APOLLO ADVENTURE

摘要

Like other youngsters of the 1960s, I hung posters of the Mercury space capsule on my bedroom wall and Revell models of it overhead. In the fourth grade, I listened with my classmates to the radio broadcast over the school PA of Alan Shepard's pioneering spaceflight. At 15,I bagged groceries to earn money for my first camera, a twin-lens reflex. In no time I was shooting photos for the school newspaper and yearbook. The editor of our weekly local paper, the Maumee Valley News, invited me to submit photos for publication. I began shooting car wrecks, fires, and human-interest stuff.
