From Randy Eli Grothe’s goodbye note as he leaves The Dallas Morning News:
Now, being a writer seemed to be an admirable profession, but being a photographer seemed to be just plain cool. And being a newspaper photojournalist with a Nikon dangling from your neck as well as a press pass opening doors, whoa, that was tres cool.
So that’s the road I took. That road led me here, and from here came all the memorable characters and exciting destinations.
