Cute Dog Photos! Uggie From 'The Artist' Honored With "Hand Paw Print" Ceremony At Grauman's Chinese Theatre

Uggie, the unbelievably cute dog from the movie 'The Artist' which won an Academy Award for Best Picture, was immortalized yesterday with a "hand and paw" print ceremony(hands... feet... paws... dogs are people, too... aren't they??) at Grauman's Chinese Theatre. Here's a nice selection of event photos. Pictured with Uggie is owner/trainer Omar von Muller, Rin Tin Tin, and Lassie. Syndicated with Corbis Images. © Mark Savage

My Portrait of Ray Bradbury


I photographed Ray Bradbury at his home in Los Angeles for the Los Angeles Reader Magazine in 1996. While setting up my photo equipment in his backyard, I remember seeing this space seemingly carved out of a wall to his house. I suggested that he stand there for the photo shoot which he thought was a terrific idea.
