Quartzite: Where Snowbirds Come to Roost
In my pursuit of growing old in America, this past February I went to Quartzite, Arizona to photograph and talk to the locals. This dusty town off Interstate I-10 is a destination for thousands of elderly retirees seeking an inexpensive getaway from the cold winter months. To my surprise I discovered that Quartzite is a barometer for economic changes affecting the elderly across the United ...Read More (Source: Jeffrey M.

Sketching in the Desert
There is no better antidote to the busy streets and crowded subways in Manhattan than a few days in the American Southwest desert. Last weekend I flew to Phoenix, rented a car, and drove to Wickenberg – a cowboy town replete with Saguaro cacti and blazing sunsets. Living in New York City makes a horizon-to-horizon view in complete silence with nobody around an amazing treat. ...Read More (Source: Jeffrey M.

Aging in Central Asia
In May 2012 I traveled to Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia to photograph aging and gain better understanding of international differences in how people grow old.  I was amazed to learn the extent that elders are revered in traditional Kyrgyz society.  The collapse of the Soviet Union and globalization have caused rapid economic and cultural change, and their effects have not been to the benefit of ...Read More (Source: Jeffrey M.

Tradition and Healing at the Santa Fe Indian Market
I’ve traveled hundreds of miles across Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah to photograph the scenery and the people but I never made it to the Santa Fe Indian Market until this past summer. There I discovered an explosion of Native American art that builds on culture and traditions, honors ancestors, and provides a healing path to the future. There were 650 booths centered in the ...Read More (Source: Jeffrey M. Levine MD | Geriatric Specialist | Wound Care | Pressure Ulcers)

Venice Beach Sketchbook
I started drawing again after a hiatus of over twenty years, and what better place to practice my rediscovered skills than Venice Beach, California. I first visited Venice in 1995, and there was something in the sand, the murals, and the alleys that enchanted me. I found it to be a place to relax in the sun away from the bustle of Manhattan, and mingle ...Read More (Source: Jeffrey M. Levine MD | Geriatric Specialist | Wound Care | Pressure Ulcers)
