My remarks will trace the inspiration for my photography from the principles of Unitarian Universalism. Our principles must not be static; they must become the inspiration to action in our daily lives. That inspiration has taken me around the world in working with people who have been marginalized. Our challenge is to constantly renew our commitment to these principles. Without a dogmatic creed it is our spiritual responsibility to define how we act on our principles.
