There, you have an exception, as this the top of the food chain in the
american PJ world. It's akin to being designated poet laureate of the
nation. The presidential photographers come out of the PJ world. It's
like being on special assignment, except where it wouldn't last much
longer than a few days to a few months in other cases, this one lasts
for 4-8 years. The work becomes part of the public archive as it is.
