Tuesday night (1/17) members gathered for a fabulous speaker, Sam Cranston, from NASCAR Illustrated. Sam showed us several of his photos that had been published and answered questions from students about his career. He was also generous enough to provide us with some copies of the magazine and point out where his work appeared in it. If you weren’t there, you really missed out on a great time. Keep checking back for more meeting updates and we hope to see you all come out soon!
Tonight! NASCAR photographer, Sam Cranston will be talking about his work and sharing from his extensive career.
