Writers/Reporters Wanted!
Via Mitra Kalita and Manisha Gangopadhyay
A magazine called the Monitor on Psychology (www.apa.org/monitor) will soon be looking for people to fill three positions: reporter (public policy), editorial assistant, and freelance proofreader.
The reporter will write 4-6 articles a month focusing on areas of public policy, especially policy relating to psychology. This is a full time position with benefits.
The editorial assistant is a full time entry-level position for people interested in getting a start as a magazine writer. This person will help to edit and proofread articles, as well as write small pieces.
These two positions are not posted yet, but will soon be listed with full descriptions on: http://www.apa.org/jobs/
Finally, if you are interested in doing freelance proofreading work, and are familiar with AP style, let me know and I'll
forward your information to the editor.
Kalpesh
A couple of years back I visited London. Before my trip, I pestered Shahidul Alam for names of photographers, photo editor and photo agencies. People he knew well and whom I could meet to show off my own portfolio. On the top of his list was Kalpesh Lathigra.
I called. We talked. He was busy. But, we could meet. For a bit. At lunch time. Perfect!
Lathigra, is a London-based photojournalist. His images are full of energy. They are emotionally charged and have the sense of intimacy that many photographers simply lack. His web site displays a large breadth of work that also belies his age.
“There are lies, then there are damn lies”
I am really not sure who said that. But it is hard not to hear the spin out of Washington these days without wondering – have we heard it all yet? Is there more of this double-talk coming our way? What new rationale for the war in Iraq will they spit out at us? As citizens of the world do we not have the basic human right to challenge the policies and the practices of our government?
Politics and international relations aren't for the faint at heart. NYTimes op-ed writer Tom Friedman's book Longitudes and Attitudes offers one perspective. Meanwhile, here is another – Lakshmi Chaudry, a prolific writer and political scientist, has co-authored a book, The Five Biggest Lies Bush Told Us About Iraq. She and her co-authors Robert and Christopher Scheer may have just given us what we need to begin questioning the current illusionary path we are on. Her writing can be found here and here.

She shoots, she teaches, you score!
Who is SHE? She is Ami Vitale, one of my favorite photojournalists who currently works out of India. If you haven't seen her work online – RUN and check it out here. The images will inspire you and the Flash-based presentation will wow you. It's clean, simple, elegant and amazing.
Ami is internationally recognized for her documentary work. The National Press Photographers Association recently awarded her the much acclaimed Magazine Photographer of the Year title. At the recent PhotoPlusExpo in New York City, the World Press Photo folks had assembled her winning portfolio of images from Gujarat (after the riots). With her permission, I'll try and post those images here. She is also Canon's 2003 Female Photographer of the Year.
Meanwhile, here is your chance to learn from this young master of photography! Leslie Scott Photography and Tours is offering a special workshop with Ami from January 31 to February 14, 2004. The workshop will take place in Rajasthan. Again, I wish I could go. But if any of you do make it there, do send me a report at: tiffinbox[at]pipalproductions[dot]com.
