Rangefinder April 2010 Issue
Posted on April 12, 2010 - Filed Under Edeyo, EGPAF, HSUS, Photography, Press/Interviews, Studio NB
Recently I was interviewed for Rangefinder Magazine’s April 2010 issue. The feature profiled my work with The Humane Society of the United States, The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric Aids Foundation and The Edeyo Foundation by taking a look at my documentaries, “A Sealed Fate,” “Generation Free” and “Haiti: Hunger & Hope.” Photography is such a powerful tool when used to raise awareness, and I am beyond happy to be able to be a part of these causes. Check out the article below and look for Rangefinder on newstands today!

Hi Nigel,
I just got the April Issue of Range Finder in the mail and read your article last night. You are such an inspiration not only you provide wonderful advices to the contestants on ANTM how to help photographers to completed their vision, I find reading your interview allows me to get to know the real you outside of ANTM. I am very inspired by your charity works and especially what you do for the Seals Fate Project is really awesome. I hope to come to New York sometimes this year and able to come visit your photo exhibit. Anyway, best wishes to you in 2010 and may your life be filled with a lot of love, joy, laughs, blessings and wonderful people around you.
Sincerely,
Zabrina from San Francisco
Hello Nigel,
I am a freelance editor, working with authors who articulate progressive causes through their books. Recently, I edited psychologist and animal activist Melanie Joy’s two books, the most recent of which is _Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows: An Introduction to Carnism_. I encourage you to check it out; it’s listed on Ellen’s blog. The author has been interviewed by the BBC and I believe the Today Show. I am currently developing a book with a renowned African-American minister on homophobia in the ministry.
I wanted to tell you how moved I was by A Sealed Fate. Your photographs, too, are absolutely stunning. I honor and appreciate that you have used your considerable talents to focus on such important causes as pediatric aids, global poverty, the rights of non-human animals, and conservation (I am looking forward to your film on the plight of orangutans).
Have you considered writing a book about your travels and your work on these documentaries and exhibits? By the time your orangutan film comes out, if I have counted correctly, you would have five projects to write about–quite enough for a book. I envision a book that is part travelogue, part articulation of your process, part articulation of the causes you’ve worked on. With photographs, of course!
Thanks for all the very good things you do in the world.
Take good care,
Aimee
