Bite Mark by Elinor Carucci

A. J. Epstein

A great guy from Chicago who shares my interest in UFOs, and who took a photograph of me on my first book tour in 1995. You can find the picture, as well as various others, on his site.

David Gilleece

I love David Gilleece's work. I haven't got the funds to collect photography, but I am the proud owner of one of his prints.

Anthony Goicolea

His work is really creepy and powerful and surprising. He's around my age but looks 15 and plays it to the hilt, creating huge sprawling pieces where he digitizes the photo to create various clone-like images of himself. They're also somewhat similar in subject matter and theme to the stuff I write about, I think.
