though tall, blond, a good sport with a ready smile and updated red cross skills, marie, a triple
platinum card member with most major airlines, is not a flight attendant.
instead, hardly out of the plane, she is already hunting and gathering places, instants, faces,
skills, and things with an ok design, like the chateau de versailles, a carrot operated by thierry
marx, a tiny butterfly in nabokov’s collection in st petersburg, a flying elephant with children
in it, a small excentric shop near kyoto or a chair in hemingway’s cuban house.
marie adores those stories but she shares them gratefully with really good magazines she has
learned to know all over the world, as well as some interesting companies.
between stopovers, she lives in full scandinavian splendor with her cameras, in montmartre,
above paris roofs.
