Lighting a candle in memory of my friend and renowned photographer David Douglas Duncan who died today in the south of France at 102.
DDD designed the cover of my next book — The Idiot and the Odyssey III: Twenty Years Walking The Mediterranean — when I saw him last October. He was 101 at the time.
