Description of Pictures: The third annual Eisenhower Symposium was held at American University's Abramson Family Founders Room in American University’s new School of International Service Building. The title of the symposium is Eisenhower 1956: The President’s Year of Crisis-Suez and the Brink of War, a “book launch” of the monograph written by David A. Nichols, which will be published by Simon & Schuster in March 2011. The symposium is co-sponsored by American University’s School of International Service and the Center for Congressional and Presidential Studies in Washington, DC, and the Eisenhower Institute based in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
To commemorate the legacy of the United States’ 34th President, one of the founders of the School of International Service, this symposium will focus on Eisenhower’s leadership during the Suez Canal Crisis as featured in David Nichols’ forthcoming book. The symposium will feature a book presentation by author David Nichols himself. The presentation will be followed by a discussion of the book by David Ottaway of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and Stephen Rudolph of the Industrial College of the Armed Forces and a question and answer session.
Participants invited to the symposium include faculty and students of George Washington University’s Elliott School of International Affairs, Johns Hopkins University’s Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, and the University of Maryland’s School of Public Policy, as well as distinguished members of the Dwight D. Eisenhower Commission.

2011 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used the Fuji S100fs camera as well as two Nikon models -- the D90 and the new D7000. Mostly a toy, I also purchased a Fuji Real 3-D W3 camera, to try out 3-D photographs. I found it interesting although I don't see any real use for 3-D stills now. Given that many of the photos from the 1860s were in 3-D (including some of the more famous Civil War shots), it's odd to see it coming back.
Trips this year:
Civil War Trust conferences (Savannah, GA, Chattanooga, TN),
New Jersey over Memorial Day for my birthday (people never seem to visit New Jersey -- it's always just a pit stop on the way to New York. I thought I might as well spend a few days there. Despite some nice places, it still ended up a pit stop for me -- New York City was infinitely more interesting),
my 6th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Francisco).
Ego strokes: Author photos that I took were used on two book jackets this year: Jason Emerson's book "The Dark Days of Abraham Lincoln's Widow As Revealed by Her Own Letters" and Dennis L. Noble's "The U.S. Coast Guard's War on Human Smuggling." I also had a photo of Jason Stelter published in the Washington Examiner and a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post.
Number of photos taken this year: just over 390,000.
