Your great article about Pauline Canterberry & Mary Miller, the Dustbusters is great. Pauline’s letter is terrific and so very true. I am very glad that you have used my photograph of a loaded coal truck to accompany her letter. Would it be asking too much for you to credit the photo with my name–real small if you like–photo–Builder Levy.
I am trying to get as much exposure of my coalfield photos as possible thru publication and exhibition. (The book Sierra club book, Coal Country includes more than 30 of my images.) Having my name associated with my work makes it easier to get more of the work out to a bigger and broader audience. Thank you for your consideration.
Wishing you all the very best,
