"Most of the time, Elvis never even knew I took his picture. Elvis was almost laser-focused on whatever he did. So I would wait till he was involved—and Elvis was the kind of person who would be involved every 15 minutes in something else. Whether he’s combing his hair, or buying a ring, or in rehearsal; whether he’s talking to his father about why the plumbing isn’t working and the swimming pool isn’t full, or reassuring his mother that it’s O.K. to take a ride around the block on his motorcycle, or posing with some girls to take snaps by other girls, his life was full of activity.”

The folks at the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) are excited about this exhibition. It was a thrill for the project team to work on a show that had such broad appeal, and we're trying to make the exhibition's outreach even wider by hooking "Elvis at 21" into a host of social networks: Facebook and Twitter (@elvisat21) and even a share your Elvis story on YouTube opportunity (www.youtube.com/user/sitesExhibitions). The show also has its own blog!
