Old story... I was about 15, and wrote a paper on McCurry.  Went to visit
him in his NYC apartment for the interview.  Real nice guy.   Met his
Girlfriend/Wife.
I got an A.  ( unusual for me....!)  

He is part of the Hasselblad HD4 campaign...

Right. When it comes down to it the camera doesn't matter, the eye does but
this is photographer known for Nikon and also Hassy I think.
