This is James Obergefell. He’s the plaintiff in Obergefell v. Hodges, the landmark Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality.
He was at the LGBT Center for a book signing. We have the same number of syllables in our last names!
For this year’s “today” show daily, published by Dental Tribune on-site at the Greater New York Dental Meeting, I wrote an article for out-of-towners about what they can do for fun during their visit to the big city.
The meeting, which is an annual event in the dental industry, started just after Thanksgiving. I was the designated exhibit hall photographer for Dental Tribune, taking pictures at many of the company booths during the event. On one of the days I also covered a breakfast hosted by Henry Schein Dental, a company that is making a big push into digital technology.

One of my favorite places to walk is along the High Line. It’s an elevated rail platform on the west side of Manhattan that trains ran on was used many decades ago to transport freight. For years it sat empty until, finally, it was turned into a park. Today you can climb stairs or take an elevator to get to it, and you can walk all the way from Gansevoort Street to West 34th. On a nice day, it’s not to be missed.
Here are some pictures I took during a recent visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I’m quite fond of the newly refurbished American galleries, where Washington Crossing the Delaware is displayed. David’s Death of Socrates and Van Gogh’s Irises are also favorites. I took the skyline picture from the museum’s roof deck, which looks out over Central Park.
