Inventor Portrait: Steven Sasson

[Thanks to Tommy]

I think that two megapixels was a very good estimate of what a consumer photographer might be satisfied with. Around the millennium we were indeed very happy with two-megapixel cameras.

It's been way too long since I've posted one of these. This is my portrait of Steven Sasson, inventor of the digital camera. He was the 32nd inventor in my project. I shot him in October at Kodak's headquarters in Rochester, just a couple weeks before President Obama awarded him the National Medal of Technology.
