Many, many--my friends are very open minded.
Smart, funny, creative people who love my photos and want to buy them : ) Also friends with an interest in having truthful connections.
Leonard Cohen, Ron Sexsmith, Dave Edmunds, Marianne Faithfull, Sesame Street, Ramones, Kinks, Neil Sedaka, Elvis C. and Elvis P.--do I need to go on?
Let's see...to name a few choice films...Lawrence of Arabia, The Cruise, Breaking the Waves, The Blues Brothers, Manhattan, Shine, The Kingdom Come-Thy Will Be Done, documentaries of all sorts, lots more.
Mr. Show, Larry Sanders, America Undercover, Curb Your Enthusiasm--I guess I'm an HBO addict--plus Medium and a number of other NBC shows. My own will be the best, whenever I get to make them : )
Favorite piece of Western literature is "The Grand Inquisitor," a chapter in the Brothers Karamozov. Reading and re-reading many classics I said I had read but didn't in school. Also love my non-fiction books about face reading, sleep positions, graphology, geishas, Geri Jewell, Clara Bow, W.C. Fields and Ramana Maharshi.
Anyone living their lives bold and true.
