A PHOTO SESSION

July 26, 1999

The Burning City by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle will be published by Simon and Schuster in Spring, 2000. They wanted photographs of the authors for the cover. Tim and Zack Griffith, Larry Niven's nephews, along with Roberta, Larry, me, and Sasha the Husky set out to find a good outdoors location in our local wilderness conservation area (which is just behind my house). We went up to The Tree People at Coldwater and Mulholland Drive, and here are some of the results.

One of the most important New York portrait photographers once offered her a job setting up pictures. | Roberta shows off the shirt I bought her in Avalon during our 40th Anniversary trip |

And an interesting discovery. The worm marks on that log will turn up in the next book in the series. That's me, looking a bit fatter than I am. Not flattering but there it is...
