This evening, I got a text from actor, client and friend Misty Mills letting me know that she landed a role in “Machine Gun Preacher,” which stars Gerard Butler!

I met Gregg Kent last weekend on a photo assignment at the Detroit Renaissance Center. Actually, I was lost & looking for the restroom when I approached this young man who happens to work at the information desk. Much to my embarrassment, I walked past the restrooms twice. Duh… After he got me on the […]
