Description of Pictures: David Hajdu "The Ten-Cent Plague":
This dark and scary tale from the music critic at the New Republic and author of Positively Fourth Street is also a true one. During the political witchhunts of the ’50s, another menace appeared: comic books. Causing moral panic, comics were blamed for antisocial behavior in young readers, and the books were censored and even burned.
The speaker was introduced by Andras Goldinger, from Politics and Prose.

2008 photos: Equipment this year: I was using three cameras -- the Fuji S9000 and the Canon Rebel Xti from last year, and a new camera, the Fuji S100fs. The first two cameras had their pluses and minuses and I really didn't have a single camera that I thought I could use for just about everything. But I loved the S100fs and used it almost exclusively this year. Trips this year: (1) Civil War Preservation Trust annual conference in Springfield, Missouri , (2) a week in New York, (3) a week in San Diego for the Comic-Con, (4) a driving trip to St. Louis, and (5) a visit to dad and Dixie's in Asheville, North Carolina. Ego strokes: A picture I'd taken last year during a Friends of the Homeless event was published in USA Today with a photo credit and everything! I became a volunteer photographer with the AFI/Silver theater. Number of photos taken this year: 330,000.
