homeless ron from louisiana sitting on sidewalk; goes by "red dog". ron is 58 and speaks 75% in poetry 25% in sermon. he says he "i sleep on a doorstep and wake up every day at life's doorway."

ron has been in sf since '93; the year when his twin brother don died. he was in LA at that point trying to be an actor. as for now, he says, "what else can i be but what i am?"

 You are the unequaled master of these shots. You get such amazing details in the b&w shots of people. It's like their whole lives can be told in one picture. Awesome.
