This is the Moroccan table I purchased at the Rosetta Stone in Los Angeles on 1/28/96. This photo is by Timothy Fielding.

This photograph of hotline assistant John Slovick at his desk in an administrative office for the Southern California HIV/AIDS Hotline was probably taken by William Neish. This is an expression I sometimes saw in my discussions with John. Unfortunately, the hotline was terminated and calls are now forwarded to Northern California. No attempt (other than mine) was ever made by APLA to inform the community about the hotline's demise. At the time the hotline ended and volunteer staff disbanded, the Southern California HIV/AIDS Hotline was still listed in APLA funding brochures and John became a so-called 'referral specialist.' I alerted L.A. newspapers about the cover-up yet journalists chose not to report these circumstances. Perhaps, if the community had known about the end of this local hotline, the necessary funding would have been found so that it could continue. This is another case of information about diminishing community services being kept from the public due to what others believe is in their own best self-interests; and of journalists failing to report news when there is no press release involved.

I took this impromptu photograph of William Neish at his desk in an administrative office for the Southern California HIV/AIDS Hotline. Too small to be discerned in this photo is a photocopy of a lithograph of William Shakespeare that I gave to William after deciding that this was one of his previous incarnations.

This is an APLA volunteer party photo of mysterious Tarot card reader Clara Voyant.

A helpful acquaintance took this photo of Marie Todd and myself at U2's postmodern 'Popmart' concert at the Los Angeles Coliseum on June 21, 1997. This was during the weekend of the summer solstice. I don't remember the name of this passer-by because I had technical problems with my tape recorder. During the concert, from my vantage point in the Coliseum, three stars outlined a prominent pyramid pattern in the sky above the stadium.

In October 1997, I took this impromptu photograph of Amanda Suzanne in her Hollywood antique store in the vicinity of Paramount Pictures.

I visited with relatives in Pennsylvania October 3 - 6, 1997. This photograph of me with my cousin, Nancy Ferringer, was taken by Mazie Bickel.

This photo sent to me by my cousin Nancy features my late grandmother, Margaret Shellenberger (center), and aunts (from left) Hannah Bell Bovard, Clara Bell Mitchum, Marilyn Miller and Roselyn Hamilton. I discovered that I have Native American ancestry as Margaret said her mother was part Mohawk Indian.

I snapped this photo of Fiona Manning beside Manley Hall's depiction of Madame Blavatsky at the Philosophical Research Society Library on May 3, 1998.

Here's a 1998 snapshot of Laura Leong and I that was taken on the last weekend Laura was bookstore manager at the Philosophical Research Society. This photo was taken inside the bookstore by Mark Anthony.

I took this photo of the Masonic Temple at the intersection of Euclid and Cordova in Pasadena, California on Sunday, April 22, 2001.
