Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the United States

Ladies and Gentlemen, The President of the United States is an original collection of short stories. Inspired by the unique manner with which artists see the world, Ladies and Gentlemen is an exploration of memory, voice and vision. The collection's characters narrate their own stories of grief and joy, birth and death, hopeful beginnings and regretful endings. Simply put, they tell us the story of life. But these are lives rendered in oil paint and wax encaustic. These are lives captured in the fluttering light of celluloid and the imperfect hand of charcoal. These are lives viewed with the careful eye that urges us to recognize the act of living for what it is---an art.
