Stephen King, Tabitha King, and Owen King reading

It's been a while since I've posted any images here, as graduate school and wedding planning have been keeping me running around like a gazelle. I have so many great images that I want to post: Erica's baby, the Marrakesh dinner, the National Geographic frog exhibit, family photos from the holidays, but I think those will have to wait until I find some free time to sort and edit. But I did recently come across an incredible photography opportunity that I jumped on, also much like a gazelle.

The PEN/Faulkner Foundation organized a reading titled "The Three Kings," featuring Stephen King and also his wife, Tabitha, and son, Owen, who are also accomplished writers. The reading took place last Friday, April 4th, at the Lutheran Church across the street from the Folger Shakespeare Library. My friend Elizabeth is the PEN/Faulkner intern (she's the lovely lady in front of the capital pictured below) and she connected me with PEN/Faulkner. There was so much excitement at the reading; there were fans waiting at the church doors six hours before the reading, to get the best seats. Mary Kay Zuravleff gave a wonderful introduction for the Kings. I had a great time; enjoy the images!
