Return from Haiti

noreply@blogger.com (brendan) — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 23:22:00 +0000

I left for Haiti rather abruptly, which is why I've not posted here in a while. You can now see the first edit of my work here on my website. I have two essays posted, one called The Petionville Club, about a tent city in Port-au-Prince comprised of people displaced by the recent earthquake, and another about the USNS Comfort, a U.S. Navy hospital ship now in Haiti treating earthquake victims. That ship was also how I got to Haiti - together we sailed from Baltimore.

Happy New Year!

The city's first snowfall of the season and a run up to the Capitol kept me busy and landed me on the front page of the New York Times' website this weekend.

More Health Care

Kill the Bill

The House might have passed health care legislation, but this fight is not over yet.

WWII Vets for the Wall Street Journal

noreply@blogger.com (brendan) — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 20:07:00 +0000

Check out this slideshow of images I did for the Wall Street Journal about a group of WWII veterans from South Carolina that came to Washington to visit the WWII Memorial. They made the trip courtesy of an organization called the Honor Flight Network, and were greeted by former Senator and presidential candidate Bob Dole.

Highest Court in the Land

noreply@blogger.com (brendan) — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 02:43:00 +0000

Now that Sotomayor is actually seated and the Supreme Court in session, I thought I'd share a few photos from the day she was actually sworn in to become an associate justice. There were some very happy women outside the court that day.
