Obama’s People
Bravo for your magnificent portfolio of “Obama’s People” (Jan. 18). While some may find the photographs stark, I found the sharp, unembellished, unpretentious photographs of Obama’s team representative of what I believe America is hoping the Obama administration will bring to government: frankness, honesty, genuineness what you see is what you get.
