Elinore Pinto

Elinore Pinto, my grandmother and one of the great loves of my life.

We took these photos in her room at the nursing home. My mom was kind enough to be my lovely assistant that day, you can see her hands holding up the height chart.

When I was in the darkroom printing Nana's contribution to the cause I was thinking that I should go back and ask her neighbors for their wishes and regrets. What the difference would be between what we think now if now is 49 versus now is 99.

Food for thought.
