One of my ongoing projects is taking pictures of Hoagy Carmichael. Yes, I realize he died in 1981, but a statue of him was placed near the stage door of IU Auditorium last fall. He’s very popular. People like to leave him things. I like to think they are offerings to a legend as a way to ensure a good show for those about to perform. I plan to take pictures of as many of these items that I can.
