As a high school student, New York-based architectural and landscape photographer Jade Doskow enjoyed afternoons buried in the novels of Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky with plans to major in Russian literature preparing her for the life of a literary scholar.
Instead, following a bad accident from her job as bike courier, she began a series of photographic self-portraits that led to a project that replicated the novelist’s tone and vision of the world in images that are often dark and haunting--described as “eerily poetic” as they capture moments where people, architecture, nature, and time come together in a moment—and then move on.

Kudos to Zack! In these troubled times, the world could use many more people like him. And kudos to Boyertown for providing the kind of atmosphere where Zack (and others like him) can grove and thrive. Finally, is the book mentioned still available? I'd like to buy one as I remember all of the people mentioned.
Yes, Mark. The books are available at Studio B Art Gallery and the Building a Better Boyertown office.
