Working at 90

February 19, 2008 | Category: Uncategorized

Today, I had a difficult assignment. It was Jeri, 90, who has been working part-time as she has gotten older. She was really nice. And I think that the story’s great, and important, but not that visual. She just worked in a cubical with three walls and her back to me…What do you do? This is a common problem, but can be fun to challenge your self to come out of situations like this with a good photo. This is what I got. I’m happy with it, but I think I need to practice my portraits so I’m better prepared in situations such as these…

(02/18/08) — Jeri Wishard, 90, of Dallas, is the oldest person working for Methodists Hospital. She was a full-time employee for many years, but is now part-time in the accounts receivable department. “I don’t feel like I’m 90 years-old,” said Wishard. “I’ve been blessed with good health.”
