Norman Lerner worked as a fashion and commercial photographer in New York City from the early 50’s to the 70’s. He states that, “my photography did not end when the model left the studio. The city and its people were a part of me and I was part of them. Everything about the city fascinated me so it seemed only natural for me as a photographer to record the people and places in which I lived. When I left the studio the camera was always with me and it became an extension of my being. It was as natural as breathing.”

Man Child, Sam The Sham (1963)
Domingo Samudio, aka Sam The Sham, released his first 45rpm in 1962, a cover of Chick Willis’ Betty and Dupree; the B side was Man Child. Two years later, Sam The Sham & The Pharoahs’ hit Wooly Bully made No. 1 in Billboard’s Top 100 for 1965. Contrary to popular belief, Samudio wasn’t of Mexican ancestry; he was of Basque/Apache descent.

Four small nightmares. An abandoned stage set creates a terrifying forest setting for these visitors to a lonely theme park scene now closed. What horrible event was portrayed inside the forest with a bridge to nowhere but darker? – Jim Linderman / Dull Tool Dim Bulb
