The poet HL Hix sent his newest poetry collection to me and suggested it would make more sense if read aloud to my dog, Buddy. So I did, and made this little video for Harvey. He loved it and asked to share it on the publisher's website. You can view it here:

Since 2015, I've traveled with Andrew Cullen, photographer and photojournalist, for his project about the environmental context of migrant mortality in the desert southwest. We've gone deep into the backcountry of Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument and Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge, the Coronado National Forest and Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge, following migrant trails and documenting the stories the landscape offers, stories of dreams, failed policies, brutality, suffering, and death. Ongoing project, though both "Desert Remains" and "Look and See" (linked above) are completed essays on the subject. Andrew Cullen's website:  https://www.andrewcullenphoto.com/index
