The Feature Shoot Photography Podcast: Jo-Anne McArthur And Michael Joseph

See the photos the photographers refer to here: https://www.featureshoot.com/2019/04/feature-shoot-has-a-new-podcast/ In the Feature Shoot podcast, photographers recount the moving and untold stories behind the pictures that stayed with them long after they clicked the shutter. Episode one features first-person stories from photographers, Jo-Anne McArthur and Michael Joseph. For the eight-plus years, Joseph has met and photographed individuals in an American youth subculture, known commonly as Travelers. He's journeyed throughout the country, collecting portraits and stories from people who spend their days on the go, exploring the United States by freight train or car, and living according to their own set of rules. In his episode of the podcast, he introduces us to Knuckles, a Traveler he first met in Las Vegas. Over the years, the two of them have stayed in touch, and the photographer has also visited Knuckles's family. Throughout the last two-plus decades, McArthur has traveled to more than 60 countries, documenting the lives of animals who are exploited by humans. Through her images, she reveals the individuality and dignity of creatures we largely ignore and overlook, from those we eat to those we use for entertainment. In her podcast episode, she introduces us to Ron, a chimpanzee who spent years of his life in a laboratory, where he lived in a 5'x5'x7' cage, was anesthetized more than a hundred times, and had a healthy disk surgically removed from his neck. Ron and McArthur were born in the same year, though their lives followed very different courses. By the time they met, Ron had thankfully been rescued by Save the Chimps, and he lived out the rest of his life at their Florida sanctuary.
