I got a great chance last month to document a couple days in the life of U.S. Representative Joe Sestak (D-Pa.) for the latest issue of Philadelphia Magazine. You can read Jason Fagone‘s piece here.
Sestak, as you might be aware, is running against Arlen Specter (who recently switched parties) in the upcoming Democratic primary. I’ve photographed a lot of politicians in my career and Sestak, a former admiral in the Navy, is definitely one of the most…shall we say…energetic. It took a lot to keep up with the schedule he and his staff kept. And that was only two days! I can’t imagine doing it everyday.
As always, thanks to Philly Mag’s great art staff for the awesome direction and photo display!
