Duane Michals: Jump First, Ask Questions Later (Remembering the Gay Pioneer)

"Because I didn't learn the photo rules it was very easy for me to abandon them." The pioneering photographer Duane Michals talks about discovering his love for photography in the 1950s, not looking down on commercial work, his half-century-long relationship with his partner, and why talking about "art" makes him want to vomit. Duane died last week at the age of 94.
