Excellent stuff for a book. Thought of it?

   In 1971, the Houston Chronicle had me attend the Missouri Workshop, a
kind of boot camp for newspaper photojournalists sponsored by the
University of Missouri. The annual workshop was conducted in a different
rural Missouri town, this time in West Plains. Each photographer was given
an afternoon to find a story and convince a faculty ? including folks from
National Geographic. Students shot for two-and-one-half days, turning in
their film for local processing. Their day?s take then was criticized by
the staff. I chose schoolteacher Beth Weise. One of the art exercises was
for her students to paint and then cut out faces. After class, she sat down
and applied makeup, a painted face among many painted faces.
