Autism Speaks – Light it Up Blue Project

April 1, 2010

Today, I was the official photographer for AutismSpeaks.org. I had the wonderful pleasure of following Bob Wright and Suzanne Wright around New York City and be their personal photographer to observe the Light It Up Blue campaign and the  beginning of Autism Awareness Month. Along the way, we met people of the likes of Yoko Ono, Tommy Hilfiger and co-Host of Bravo’s Top Chef Tom Colicchio. Bob Wright, the former president and CEO of NBC and vice chairman of GE until May 2008, along with his wife Suzanne Wright, founded Autism Speaks in 2004 after their grandchild was diagnosed with autism. Enjoy!

This past Monday, I had the opportunity to photograph the 17th Annual Feast with Famous Faces at the Lighthouse at Pier 61, Chelsea Piers, a culinary gala hosted by the Center for Hearing and Communication where top New York City chefs prepared some of their delicious signature dishes. Notable chefs that participated in this event included William Gallagher from Becco, Food Network chef Alexandra Guarnaschelli from Butter, Carmine Marletta from the Intercontinental Barclay Bar and Grill, and Dale Talde from Buddakan (who was on Top Chef’s Season 4).
That night’s best dishes included an absolutely decadent and creamy lobster bisque with warm gougères expertly prepared by Brasserie Cognac’s chef Florian Hugo, a heavenly jumbo crab cake by chef Anthony Walton from the Central Park Boathouse, Carmine’s yummy eggplant parmigiana, and a mouthwatering pork spare riblet with sweet potato bourbon mash by Hill Country.
