will you give me some 4x5 film if I tell you that Amy Stein was my freshman seminar photo teacher last year and I LOVE HER and everyone LOVES HER and I'm so excited for her gallery opening?? hahaha. Also, I think every head tech is supposed to be a grumpy guy. The one that we have is this little ball of fury but inside he is just a big ol' softie.

She is an incredible teacher; not at all cautious of voicing her opinion. She also pushes style and concept a lot, which I think is really important, even though she teaches a freshman course. bottom line, i love her i love her i love her and I will see you at her opening, yes?

oh no!! that's a shame. I've only seen a few of her prints so I'm excited to see the show. It's kind of weird that they are having a reception in the middle of the show, haha

so does she still work there? what other amazing photographers are you hiding in your school?

yeah she's teaching a freshman seminar class next year and a portraiture class. I'd totally take her portraiture class but I already took one this year! She also teaches at the SVA MFA program. As for other photographers...Neil Selkirk taught portraiture to me; he's Diane Arbus's printer, but that's all I know, really. There's this power couple who are...seniors? that run Fjord Photo.

I should also mention that corey arnold came into our class to speak the last class. I think amy's criteria for guest speakers was "hot as hell" because we also had these other photographers named graeme mitchell and andrew miksys come in.

OK I'M DONE TALKING

felicia my friend, you continue to make me jealous. guhhh i LOVE corey arnold's work! that must be super nice to be around really great photographers. it would be so nice to learn from these people, i can only imagine! do you ever feel intimidated or feel like you're not good enough? sorry if that's too personal but i'm just curious, because personally i could imagine me feeling overwhelmed all the time.

so how's your guys' MFA program?
