    Curtis's Interests
GeneralI like just about anything that has to do with photography. I also love to travel... I have been to Alaska and seven countries, and now wanderlust is starting to hit me again.
MusicI like mostly oldies, especially from the 60's and particularly the British Invasion. I like most 70's and 80's stuff too. I just discovered "Golden Brown" (the song on my profile) by the Stranglers. The song was in the movie "Snatch" with Brad Pitt and I liked it then, but I never did the research to find out more about the song.
MoviesThe Secret of Roan Inish *** The Godfather *** LA Story *** Y tu Mama Tamabien *** American History X / Edward Norton. He shoulda gotten an Oscar for that. *** The Day of the Jackal (the original one, not the Bruce Willis one) *** The Graduate (I loved Dustin Hoffman in that, but not in much else since) *** Goldfinger, Dr. No, and almost all of Sean Connery's Bond movies. *** Pulp Fiction Fargo, doncha know *** Office Space *** The Patriot and Braveheart (not just because I like Mel Gibson, but I do have ancestors who were Scottish and who fought in the Revolutionary War). *** Joan Allen because she's from Rochelle. Plus she's a talented actress.
TelevisionScrubs! It's one of the few shows made in the last decade that is actually worth watching. Other than that, I don't watch much television except news shows. Even on Sunday mornings I don't like to miss Meet the Press.
Books"John Adams" and "1776" by David McCullough. Almost anything by John LeCarre. "The Great Picture Hunt 2" by David LaBelle. "Video Shooter" by Barry Braverman.

   Curtis's Blurbs
About me:
..

The main photo of me was taken by the late great Monte Zucker while I was on an Alaska cruise with Monte and a bunch of other people from Shutterbug magazine.

I worked in Washington, DC for many years and I just returned to Illinois a few years ago. I hate the winters here but I'm glad to be around real people again.

I worked as a photographer for a daily newspaper for a while, but now I am doing all freelance photography and loving it. Click on the image below to visit my web page:

Clegg Photo website

In December 2007 I went on my first ghost hunt with the Illinois Ghost Hunters (IGH). I was pretty nervous about it but it was actually quite interesting. I survived the night and I am hoping to go on more hunts soon. You can read more about the IGH from their page on MySpace by clicking on their icon in my friends list below.

Who I'd like to meet:
I want to meet as many photographers, models, designers, makeup artists, stylists, journalists, writers, etc. as I can. I am always on the lookout for unusual props and locations for photos. Also, people who can always look on the bright side of life.
