He said he is working on two books now. One is a book of poetry with new photographs. He is still full of ideas and plans for things he want to do in his life! This is a man who never finished high school and at the age of 78, bought his first computer, taught himself Word Perfect and wrote his 16th book. When a friend tells me they are too old to learn a computer now, I tell them about Gordon Parks. He is the most amazing person I know! I am proud to call him my friend. ...Ken Lassiter
