(There's more detail, such as unable to develop mature relationships with women, but that's a good part of it.) I was a psychiatric social work intern at a mental hospital which specialized in treating pedophiles. Mary Ellen Mark shot "Ward 81" there, and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was filmed there before she was there. I was there in-between those two events. Until I was married, that profile stayed in my head, and made me a bit nervous when I was starting out in photojournalism (when I was 30).
