Description of Pictures: The Inaugural Irene & Abe Pollin Generations of Generosity Award
Presented to Arlene & Robert Kogod
The Irene and Abe Pollin Generations of Generosity Award recognizes individuals whose work enriches lives and promotes vibrant Jewish culture.
Arlene and Robert Kogod are the first recipients of the Arlene and Abe Pollin Generations of Generosity Award, for all they have done to enhance the quality of life in our community, from Jewish causes and education to healthcare and the arts.
The Kogods' commitment to Sixth and I dates back to when the building was first saved. From the early days of historic restoration to the present days of community innovation, the Kogods have supported Sixth and I in all phases of its growth. They are a vivid representation of what it means to stand sincerely behind a cause and ensure dynamic results.
Sixth and I's founders, staff, and constituents thank the Kogods for their unwavering dedication.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com

2009 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used the Fuji S100fs. I've also got a Nikon D90 and a newer Fuji -- the S200EHX -- both of which are nice but I still prefer the flexibility of the Fuji.
Trips this year:
Niagara Falls, NY,
New York City,
Civil War Trust conferences in Gettysburg, PA and Springfield, IL, and
my 4th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles, Yosemite, Death Valley, Kings Canyon, Joshua Tree, etc).
Ego strokes: I had a picture of a Lincoln-Obama cupcake sculpture published in Civil War Times and WUSA-9, the local CBS affiliate, ran a quick piece on me. A picture that I took at the annual Abraham Lincoln Symposium appeared in the National Archives' "Prologue" magazine. I became a volunteer with the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
Number of photos taken this year: 417,000.
