I knew my ticket out of the suburbs was art school, so I worked really hard to develop my portfolio and get a scholarship.
I was voted most artistic in school.
Actually, I didn't study photography at first. I went to school for painting my first year, poetry my second year, graphic design my third and fourth year, and photography my fifth.
A lot of people, even my parents, thought, "Art school, I don't know. We'll support you but the success rate for artists is really slim."
When I was in art school, the photo kids were separated from the rest. If you did sculpture or painting or graphic design, you were all taking the same classes, but the photographers just went straight into photography.
