It is an absolute joy to go through the collections of photographs on Jay Maisel's website. He has generously posted thousands (? didn't count) of his photographs with commentary. Lots to learn from and be inspired by.

Thank you, Joe. I've long admired Jay Maisel's photography.

Also one of my great heroes of photography. And, I believe, still very much with us, and maybe even working.
My admiration is all the more as I had the pleasure of meeting him at a party in New York, many decades ago. I recall we chatted briefly, and while we didn't become lifelong close friends (entirely my loss), I already knew his work and I was greatly impressed by his presence and his friendliness to an unknown photographer (me).
Another legend I hoped to meet was Ralph Gibson. Alas, he wasn't at that party. Being at that time immodestly tardy in all to do in my younger life, I arrived late at this event as usual, and I was later told I had missed Elliott Erwitt. So two hard kicks...
