One of my favorite people visited Kalamazoo last week as a guest of the Arcus Foundation. Bishop Gene Robinson spoke to area religious leaders about his life, his faith and his work to make sure lgbt folks are welcome in the Episcopal Church. I hadn't been planning to photograph the event, but after I got there I learned that Arcus hadn't hired anyone to cover it and so I offered to take a few photos for them. Here Bishop Robinson is engaging in conversation with Mr. Tom Kam, the director of the Religion and Values program at Arcus. Kalamazoo, Michigan. 11 September 2009.
