The Oddest Job
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Nancy Rica Schiff is an amazing photographer. She has a brilliant eye for composition and subject, and an uncanny knack for taking the bizarre or mundane and producing something dazzling and thought-provoking. This book is a testament to those who "walk to the beat of a different drum" and have persistently remain nonconformist in a world that is ever-demanding more conformity. The kind of people that there used to be a lot more of, once upon a time. This book is also a testament to Ms. Schiff's virtuosity both as a photographer and an art director. You will not be able to put thus book down once you have picked it up. I have completely fallen in love with every person featured here, and have also fallen in love with Ms. Schiff. She is BRILLIANT. (No, this is not her mother, haha! Just an avid fan and "admirer from afar.")
A fabulous curiosity.

Nancy Rica Schiff has given us the second in her series about people whose work takes them outside, in some cases way outside, the box. It holds hope for those who can't seem to imagine a way out of the dull routine of normal work. A real asset to those counselling others on the difference between occupation and vocation.
