[Leica] Peter Lik’s Recipe for Success: Sell Prints. Print Money. - NYTimes.com

[Ken Carney]

I did notice it was the lead story in the business section, as opposed 
to art and leisure.  And then if you go to the photography section in 
the magazine ("A True Picture of Black Skin"), you will learn that 
"cameras and the mechanical tools of photography have rarely made it 
easy to photograph black skin".   But, one can work around these 
unfriendly tools, such as adjusting a light meter for black skin.  
Another revelation was that film emulsions were calibrated for white 
skin, and thus don't work will with black, brown or red skin.
