Recently while in NYC for this years Afro Punk festival, i got to meet, as well as network with some very creative folks. one in particular, is my man Ed Marshall. Ed’s a well known photographer in the music, as well as editorial world. Having shot for everyone from NY Times, to Whole Wheat Bread- this dude stays grinding. As a matter if fact, i remember one small piece of advice my man gave me while in BK- “i NEVER leave home, without my camera..”. a true hustler, and man of his word. Ladies and gentleman, i introduce one of Hustlemanias newest co-defendants- Mr. Ed Marshall:
