A Camera Person's Reflections

Julia gone much too soon

In the year before we even knew that Covid was anything or could exist and kill 700,000 Americans, one of my projects was to document a new musical titled “The Moment Was Now” by Gene Bruskin. One of the cast, Julia Nixon was the only one of the cast or crew with a Broadway credit. She had a feature role in Dreamgirls. Julia could REALLY sing. Tragically she became one of the American’s that put us over the 700,000 death toll this past week. She is one of those “numbers”. Here she is, portraying Frances Harper Watkins…a really incredible human being. RIP Julia. To all of you. Get the shot, wear the mask, keep your distance. Let’s kill this damn virus , before it kills us.
