<< Steve, who contributed to the LUG for so many years, and to the 
Streetphoto list from its very inception, often confided to me that he 
felt that he was insecure and consequently distant, that he felt he had 
few friendships, and that that was a part of his being as an artist. As 
one of the handful of list people I've met face to face, it is ironic 
that we became friends when I was in one of the more difficult and 
lonely times of my life. We would meet for coffee in the New Yorker 
Hotel where he stayed when he was in town, and we got together when he 
came to visit his parents who live near my home upstate. His warmth and 
generosity belied his claimed distance and isolation, a friend I will 
dearly miss.

Gilbert,

Is there any way we can preserve Steve's work and keep it before the public? 
For example, maintain archive pages of his photographs that will be indexed on 
Google and elsewhere. Perhaps we could notify various museums in NYC about 
his work and ask them to preserve his files and present exhibitions from time to 
time.
