Description of Pictures: Voices in a Promised Land: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Aleksandar Hemon, and Cecilia Muñoz
In partnership with the 92nd Street Y’s 7 Days of Genius, a series of events that invite the public to consider what genius is, why it matters, and how it evolves.

The MacArthur Fellows Program celebrates and inspires the creative potential of individuals with a track record of achievement through no-strings-attached fellowships, popularly referred to as “MacArthur Genius Grants.”
Three Fellows—Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Sarajevo-born author Aleksandar Hemon, and Assistant to the President and Director of the Domestic Policy Council Cecilia Muñoz, who is the daughter of immigrants from Bolivia—will talk about their pioneering work as it relates to immigration in a conversation with Cecilia Conrad, the Managing Director of the Fellows Program.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2016 photos: Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Seven relatively short trips this year: two Civil War Trust conference (Gettysburg, PA and West Point, NY, with a side-trip to New York City), my 11th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including sites in Utah, Nevada, and California), a quick trip to Michigan for Uncle Wayne's funeral, two additional trips to New York City, and a Civil Rights site trip to Alabama during the November elections. Being in places where people died to preserve the rights of minority voters made the Trumputin election even more depressing. Number of photos taken this year: just over 610,000.
