Kansas again
April 28th, 2008 by Steven St John
I’m in Greensburg Kansas this week for the one year anniversary of the F5 tornado that destroyed 95% of the town. I’m working for CBS News for the first five days and for Discovery over the weekend. Here is a quick link to a slideshow I shot this morning.
The locals from Greensburg have been amazing. They are upbeat and friendly in the face of great adversity. The folks from CBS are rebuilding a park for them, which I’ll be documenting all week long.

I had a good time at the Pictures of the Year International. Met a lot of cool people. Here are just a few.
At bottom is me accepting an award for my editor and friend Mark Holm for his work in the final full year at The Trib.
Also check out students Dominic Nahr and Justin Maxon, not pictured, but their work is worth seeing.

On Saturday Feb. 23 The Albuquerque Tribune published its last paper. For me it truly was like having a family member die. The Trib was a great place to work, to grow as an artist and journalist. But this blog isn’t about that, it is about my life and work after newspaper. Stay tuned…
