Rafael Alvarez wrote an interesting article in last week's City Paper called "Photographic Memory" about PropTalk contributing photographer Thomas Scilipoti. Here's a snippet:
The name Mitchell Rozanski, a homegrown bishop with the Archdiocese of Baltimore, came up the other day at Vikki’s lunch counter in Broadway Market.
A gray-haired man of 83, chatting with another old-timer from the neighborhood, turned from his bacon and eggs and said, “I took his First Communion picture, and I used to cut his hair when he was a baby.”
The barber who went from asking people how much they wanted off the top to telling them to smile is Thomas Carmel Scilipoti, happily eating his favorite breakfast years after a quadruple bypass. If you were a Catholic school kid in Southeast Baltimore in the late 1950s and 1960s—or a blushing bride walking down the aisle at Holy Rosary on Chester Street—there’s a good chance he took your picture too.
