Title: Jonathan Santlofer
Caption: Catherine Murphy met Jonathan when they were both students at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Skowhegan Maine in the summer of 1967. At that time, the students at Skowhegan were comprised of undergraduate art students between their junior and senior years. The schools that they attended suggested that they go to Skowhegan. The year after Skowhegan, Jonathan became an MFA student at Pratt. We saw him very frequently during his first year at Pratt when Cathy and I were still living on Myrtle Avenue. By 1971, Cathy and I were living in Jersey City, while Jon and Joy were either living in Jersey City or had moved to Hoboken ----This was the first photograph I took for the "Visitors" project. Jon was over visiting when I took his photograph. Then it struck me at that moment that I would photograph everyone who came to visit. The project soon expanded to include everyone who came over, no matter the reason. Later on, when we lived in houses instead of apartments, "everyone who came over" began to include everyone who came on the property of where we lived, without necessarily coming into the house. Then it occurred to me that it seemed reasonable to have a 24-hour rule. If someone came over and left and came back within 24 hours, there would still be one entry. If they stayed overnight, there would still only be one entry. If that person or people came over seven different days, even in one week, there would be seven entries.

Title: Neil, After Arriving Home
Caption: Neil Roseman. We had all came home from Massachusetts. The three of us (Neil, Cathy, Me) went to Mass for 4 days. I initially thought that this was Friday to Tuesday. But because the roll date indicates August 29th (a Sunday) our trip might have taken place later in the week. (roll date Aug 29, 1971 #1) Earlier in this project when I used film I would date the roll of film when I took it out of the camera. So, I wouldn't necessarily know the exact day the person came over. Late on I started to mark down visits on a calendar so I would know the specific day. Still, later on, when I started to use a digital camera, the date and time would be on each photograph. Earlier on I didn't always write captions. I added this caption on August 12, 2017
