Poll shows vast majority of Cubans welcome closer ties with U.S. - By Joshua Partlow and Peyton M. Craighill April 8, 2015 Photographs by Sarah L. Voisin
Washington Post: Poll shows vast majority of Cubans welcome

Must see Sarah L. Voisin’s photography wonderful work on
Cuba assignment – I am green with envy. Just saying:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/poll-shows-vast-majority-of-cubans-welcome-closer-ties-with-us/2015/04/08/6285bfe4-d8c3-11e4-bf0b-f648b95a6488_story.html?wpisrc=al_alert
MEXICO CITY — The vast majority of Cubans welcome warmer
relations with the United States, holding high expectations that closer ties
pledged by the two countries will shake up the island’s troubled economy,
according to a new survey of Cuban citizens. But they are doubtful that the
diplomatic detente will bring political reforms to their communist country.
The poll of residents on the island shows a people unhappy
with the political system, eager to end the U.S. embargo and disenchanted with
their state-run economy. More than half of Cubans say they would like to leave
the country for good if they had the chance.
The survey, done through 1,200 in-person interviews, was
conducted in March by the Miami-based research firm Bendixen & Amandi
International on behalf of the networks Univision Noticias and Fusion. It is
being reported in collaboration with The Washington Post.

News Items: Chicago Sun-Times cuts entire photography staff.
Yet Another Blow To American Journalism
June 12, 2013 By Kellia Ramares-Watson
Again the Profit Motive Prefers Cheap Over Craft
News Items: Chicago Sun-Times cuts entire photography staff. While the company, which has been trying to revive its profits, still will hire professional freelance photographers for coverage, it will increasingly rely on reporters to take photos and video to accompany their stories.
Chicago Sun-Times will train reporters on ‘iPhone photography basics’ … a memo from Editor Craig Newman: “In the coming days and weeks, we’ll be working with all editorial employees to train and outfit you as much as possible to produce the content we need.”
There are two major groups of repercussions to the Chicago story: What this means for journalism, especially photojournalism itself, and what this move says about the economy as a whole.

Award-winning photojournalist, Phil Grout, to show over four decades of work at Birdie’s Café by Kevin Dayhoff
Award-winning photojournalist, Phil Grout, to show over four decades of work at Birdie’s Café
By Kevin Dayhoff
Posted 11/05/10
Phil Grout, an award-winning photojournalist, fine art photographer, and author will appear for the opening of a retrospective show of his work at Birdie’s Cafe Gallery in Westminster
The show titled “44/40,” spans over four decades of Grout’s work, from Vietnam to Africa, Plains Georgia, to Carroll County
Since 1966 Grout has worked throughout North, South and Central America, Asia and Africa gathering images for newspapers, magazines, wire services, and book publishers.
According to his website, philgrout.com, and a series of e-mail interviews, Grout said he “started to learn his craft as a photographer in 1966 working as a photojournalist for the U.S. Navy covering naval operations in Vietnam
“But I quickly learned it wasn’t the images of war I was hunting, but more the face of humanity as I roamed the back alleys of Saigon; Hong Kong; Sasebo , Japan and Olongopo , Philippines
With pictures and words Grout, “became a gatherer of the threads which bind us together as human beings.”
After the war, Grout “came home and settled in rural Maryland with his wife, Mary Lou, and worked for nearly 10 years as a photographer, reporter, and editor for the Hanover Evening Sun in Westminster
Since moving to Carroll County United States
According to Grout, “I fell in love with this land and its people who worked the land in my new rural home. That love pulled me away to Plains, Georgia
His first venture into the book world won him national critical acclaim, including recognition from Publisher’s Weekly which called "A Spell in Plains" “a triumph.”
In the 1980’s Grout took his camera throughout the developing world in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and India
A second book of photography, “Seeds of Hope,” “grew from the splinters left in the wake of a hurricane which cut a path through Nicaragua
Grout then went on to live in Ghana , West Africa in 2002, with an extended family of cocoa farmers to create his latest book, “Harvest of Hope,” a portrait of those who toil to bring us chocolate.
Grout, who is also an avid gardener, is constantly pushing the artistic envelope in search of new and innovative ways to tell a story, over the past four decades he has explored drawing, blacksmithing, woodworking, papermaking, and new photographic processes in photography.
In a May 21, 1995 article in the Baltimore
At the time, the article in 1995 described Grout’s show at the Carroll County Arts Center
“Like his father, Mr. Grout has a studio and darkroom in his Westminster home, where he develops prints, standard photos as well as what he calls ‘photoglyphs’ and an even newer image using handmade paper,” wrote Baublitz in 1995.
“His photographs capture people, animals, and nature, mostly in black and white, few in color, some as photoglyphs.
The photoglyphs are a relatively new method of developing prints that Mr. Grout discovered while experimenting with chemicals,” observed Baublitz.
“For those who have the time, Mr. Grout can tell the story behind (each of) his photographs.”
Indeed, his photographs all tell a short philosophical story about Grout’s worldwide travels in the four decades of a life rich in storytelling and experiences.
Grout is “Good picture shooter and a colleague in journalism… (We worked together) starting in the Navy and then at the Hanover Evening Sun… I have three or four walls covered with his work in my home…. (I) recommend you stop by and see his stuff,” said Carroll County Commissioner and fellow Vietnam
Sherri Hosfeld Joseph, the owner of Birdie’s and an artist and critically acclaimed photographer herself, added, “Phil Grout is one of the greatest photojournalists of his generation. We are truly blessed as a community that he has chosen our stories to document. Phil has an amazing ability to find the extraordinary in everyday life - and this show, a retrospective of forty-four years of his work, will leave you awestruck.”
After his work in Africa, Phil returned to his first love, photojournalism, and newspapers in 2006, freelancing for Patuxent Publishing and its string of papers in central Maryland
Phil’s photography and reporting have been awarded by the Associated Press, Maryland-Delaware-D.C. Press Association as well as various arts organizations.
An opening reception for the artist will be held at Birdie’s Cafe, 233 E. Main St. , Westminster , MD

Grout is “Good picture shooter, and a colleague in journalism starting in the navy and then at the Hanover Evening Sun and others. I have three or four walls covered with his work in my home…. Recommend you stop by and see his stuff,” said Carroll County Commissioner and fellow Vietnam Veteran, Dean Minnich
Sherri Hosfeld Joseph, the owner of Birdie’s and an artist herself, added, “Phil Grout is one of the greatest photojournalists of his generation. We are truly blessed as a community that he has chosen our stories to document. Phil has an amazing ability to find the extraordinary in everyday life - and this show, a retrospective of forty-four years of his work, will leave you awestruck.”
An opening reception for the artist will be held at Birdie’s Cafe, 233 E. Main St. , Westminster , MD
