Meet Bob Krist, a world renowned National Geographic photographer and videographer, spokesperson for Nikon and Sony. I got to know Bob when I was an art teacher in New Hope, PA where he taught my students how to shoot their work for portfolios back in the day when artist created film slides.  I have been his fan ever since. In this episode, we talked by phone from his home in San Miguel De Allende. He shares stories of rewiring his career in his late 50’s as the travel photography business tanked and the world of video storytelling emerged.  He and his wife, Peggy Krist, have worked together for 30 years in collaboration on the photography/business side of their lives and continue to collaborate in pursuing the work of their late son, Jonathan Krist, a talented jazz musician and social activist. Bob and Peggy created the Jonathan D. Krist Foundation that continues the work of Jon in awarding music scholarships for talented inner city youth in Camden, New Jersey.   See the links below for connection to Bob’s p
