Most of you folks would be surprised, but Sammy Davis Jr., the great dancer, singer, actor, was a spectacular photojournalist and documentary photographer. The original ASMP (magazine photographers) honored him with a life membership even though he didn't make half of his livlihood through photography. He was good friend to photographers and a "class act".

Funny you should mention Sammy. He's my favorite Jewish photographer, dancer, singer, actor, journalist, an ddocumentarian. He told very funny jokes too.

He's also my favorite handicapped photographer, dancer, singer, actor, journalist, an ddocumentarian. He told very funny jokes too: "Handicap? Talk about handicap – I'm a one-eyed Negro Jew.".
