Credits or Awards:	Until recently, I was a full-time editor, creating havoc for writers and photographers. Then, my employer offered me a rather nice buyout plan if I would just, well, go away. So, for the rest of 2009, I'm shooting, working on personal projects and seeking a different (and better) way to earn a living. All on their nickel. My favorite activity remains photography, but I'm open to all sorts of possibilities. We'll see what happens. As for the past, here's a brief synopsis. Gallery shows in North Carolina, Virginia, New York and Ohio. Museum show (2004) in Ohio, second museum show scheduled for 2008. Published in books, magazines, newspapers and other periodicals. The schedule: Oct. 12, 2008: Elkie Cooper (delightful to see this lady again; samples up) Oct. 12, 2008: Meghann Kelda (yet another delightful reunion; samples up) Nov. 8, 2008: Allison from Wooster (samples available) Jan. 15, 2009: Azucar from Miami (shot in Pittsburgh; samples avail.) Feb. 21, 2009: Model T from Philly area (samples available) Feb. 25, 2009: Shannon from Austintown, 1043162 (no show and profile removed; back as 1242739) March 27, 2009: Danni Lyons (samples available) March 31, 2009: Anne of Ohio (return engagement; postponed; shooting at DEAC) April 4, 2009: Leigh (return engagement; samples coming) April 11, 2009: Lexie (canceled) April 25, 2009: T from Phoenix in Tucson (canceled) April 26, 2009: Jessica (tentative, disappeared) April 27, 2009: Kaylee (1112998), Tucson (disappeared) April 28, 2009: Dark Desire (ready early; samples available) May 8, 2009: Ruby (samples available) June 16, 2009: Karla Allyson (573000) e-mailed at shoot time, still in Columbus area; postponed. June 24-July 2: Road trip to Wisconsin. Openings available. July 11, 2009: Amaya (postponed, personal reasons) July 15, 2009: Karla Allyson (573000), re-rescheduled; she asked for Wednesday instead; hooray, she made it; shooting now. Aug. 12: Tabitha Aug. 18: Kira Nova (bribe her with gear) Sept. 12: goddessangie Sept. 26-27: DEAC Want a slot? Contact me through MM or at contactsheet@femmefete.com. Thanks. (Does anybody notice a pattern here? Models from all over the country have showed up for shoots, but nobody from Youngstown has done so since last August. Who wants to be the first from this area to break the jinx? Still looking; 12 months and counting.) Want to get on the list? Give a holler.

About Me

"Skin Deep." Show ran from May into early July at Butler Institute of American Art. See details below.

Here's an excerpt from an article by Dorothy Shinn of The Akron Beacon Journal about Realism at The Butler Institute:

"What about incandescent studio light on tattooed skin?

"That's certainly a topic rife with realism, and the subject of Michael McGowan: Skin Deep, an exhibit of high-definition photographs that take an unblinking look at people who express themselves through the tattoos they wear.

"This exhibit looks at what was once a tiny subculture in this country, but, through the magic of Hollywood coupled with the culture of celebrity worship, this form of ''body art'' is becoming increasingly widespread and accepted.

"McGowan examines this phenomenon through his lens, including the dump truck driver who's a semi-pro wrestler by night, the redhead whose cartoon-colored tatts are blindingly bright, and the fashion model with facial piercings.

"You can't get more real than that."

Now, you can see some of the hotter photos that the museum wouldn't show (for the sake of kids in the galleries) at http://vanishingtattoo.com/erotic_tattoos.htm ... P.J. Reece wrote an article about eroticism and tats.

Included in his article are several of the photos from the "Skin Deep" series that were too hot for the museum to handle.
