APA/LA presents Jeff Sheng's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (6/10)


Jeff's personal project, and now book, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is a collection of portraits Jeff created of some of the closeted service members serving our country. While Jeff creatively obscures the identity of his military personnel subjects, Jeff has essentially put a face on the many individuals living double lives in order to serve their country, our country. The bravery of these men and woman on the battlefield, during deployment and in front of Jeff's lens, speaks volumes of their character to take a stand against the US Military's Don't Ask Don't Tell policy.

Jeff will discuss his project from idea to books and exhibit. Jeff will share images from his ongoing project and share stories from his experiences this project has awarded him. Jeff will end his presentation with a Q&A, and will have books available for signing.


This upcoming Thursday, APA/LA brings Jeff Sheng to their "Personal Project" series where they highlight personal work from photographers. Event is held at Smashbox Culver City. APA members free. All others $15 online/$20 at the door. Info and rsvp here.
