Over the years I have met and photographed holy men, criminals, skid road travelers, heads of state, the famous and not so famous. In the end, I have seen we are all the same. . . . We all share in... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I was fortunate enough to have Jerry as a teacher at Brooks. He really pours his emotions into this little powerhouse of a book. Powerful images although the printing could be better but it's well worth the purchase. I've given several to grieving friends.

This book is a great example of how a photograph can look into a person's soul. Every photo brings emotion and makes you reflect on your own life and the world. From pictures that make you say "awwww", to pictures that make you want to cry, this book has everything! After I first looked through it I immediately wanted to share it with everyone I knew. It's great to sit and watch someone who is reading it for the first time and just see the feelings flicker accross their face. This is one book that you will read over and over again.
Everyone DOES have a life to live!!

Jerry Gay has an amazing ability of capturing the heart and essence of America through his black and white film...this book has moved me to tears, but also to refreshed realizations about our beautiful country--reminding me that it's not the dirty politicians or CEOs that built our nation, but the down home salt of the earth folks who go to work everyday and try to do the best with what we can. "Everyone Has A Life To Live" reflects our everyday existence, something many of us no longer want to take for granted, and pays tribute to real life people who make up the United States. This book is a positive message for those struggling for ways to deal with fearful or overwhelming emotions through the anniversary of 9/11/01, and the ensuing upheaval of our now-restructuring society. Thank you for sharing your photos with us, Jerry!...
