It's been over twenty-five years since actor/photographer Roddy McDowall died of lung cancer in 1998. McDowall, despite some career challenges, was one of that breed of rare former child actors who successfully transitioned into Hollywood adulthood. He was also, however, one of the industry's "openly closeted" actors, which came with its own sense of issues. This is his story.

It's been eight years since beloved former child star and Oscar-winning actress Patty Duke died from sepsis (a ruptured intestine) at only 69 in 2016. She was also the recipient of two Golden Globes, three Emmys, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In the 1960s, she was the star of her own TV sitcom. In the mid-1980s, she served as President of the Screen Actors Guild. Through it all, she was married four times (including once to actor John Austin), had three sons, and never stopped acting. This is her tragic yet triumphant story.

I brake for small towns. In my travels documenting roadside Americana across the land, I visit hundreds of small towns a year and devote much of my free time, including every vacation, to exploring them.They are, without a doubt, the backbone of America, and I say this as a proud resident of New York City and an admirer of urban spaces. The American small town is one of our finest inventions, an incubator of talent and beauty, and an intergenerational gift that shapes our collective identity.  Few things in life are more thrilling than approaching and finally entering a small town that’s...

The Lowcountry is home to lots of history and culture, and some of it is disappearing today. Praise houses were first established in the Lowcountry sea islands on St. Helena Island’s many plantations as places to meet and worship. Since there were few formal church buildings on St. Helena Island, most of the island’s slave inhabitants could only walk or ride to the main church on Sunday mornings, if at all.

The City of Aurora’s plan for a homeless navigation campus focusing on “work first” is coming together. The City Council will vote during its study session Monday on a resolution sponsored by council member Dustin Zvonek that spells out how the campus will operate. “The City of Aurora wishes to pursue an alternative to the ‘Housing First’ approach, by setting requirements and expectations for housing to include participation in addiction recovery, mental health, and job training programs to better address homelessness,” the resolution states. “It is inhumane and economically unwise to allow individuals experiencing homelessness to remain on the streets, or simply offer unconditional housing, rather than providing them with the necessary support services that offer a structured path to self-sufficiency and housing.”
