Goodman has an eye for people\, politics and possibilities. She’s captured images from Iran’s Islamic revolution to recent times. During her 35-year career\, she combined her formal training as a political sociologist with her passion for documentary photography. \nHer first foreign assignment was Iran\, three months after the November 4\,1979 takeover of the U.S. Embassy. She photographed a visit by a grassroots delegation of Americans who traveled to Tehran to meet with the Iranian students holding the U.S. hostages. \nIn 1981\, she\, along with two colleagues\, returned on an exclusive assignment for CBS-TV News. At the time\, they were the only American journalists credentialed to work in Iran. Her third Iran assignment was for Time magazine (1983)\, where she toured the Iran-Iraq war zone\, covered breaking news events and photographed Ayatollah Khomeini from beneath her borrowed chador. \nIn 2009\, she produced her first exhibit of her Iran work titled IRAN: Images From Beneath a Chador: The Hostage Crisis and the Iran-Iraq War 1980-1983. The traveling exhibit was widely shown in the US and Europe. \nAfter a thirty-three year absence\, Randy returned to Iran in 2015 to photograph the societal changes during another pivotal period in that country’s history – – the signing of the Iran nuclear agreement. \nRandy’s photographs have been widely published in newspapers and magazines throughout the world including The New York Times\, The Boston Globe\, The Washington Post\, TIME and in Egypt\, France\, Hong Kong\, Great Britain\, Libya\, Italy and Spain. She has also made numerous appearances on radio and television programs discussing her Iran work.

The photographers\, all with a North Shore connection\, strive to capture moments… sparks if you will\, that communicate the essence of the scene unfolding before them. This exhibit showcases some of the best examples of those efforts. \nRoland “Rollie” Oxton served as a US Army photo corps photographer during World War II and went on to become a Pulitzer Prize winning photographer for the Record American/Boston Herald. For almost three decades his work captured the range of human emotion from sheer terror to moments of joy and even humor. \nStanley Forman is a photojournalist and videographer whose work has won him three Pulitzer Prizes and many other awards. Stanley’s career began when his father gave him a camera almost 50 years ago. While on staff for the Boston Herald American\, Stanley’s work set the standard for spot news photography creating powerful images that have stood the test of time. He continues to bring us his unique visual perspective and uncanny sense of timing as a videographer for WCVB-TV in Boston. \nRobert Wilson photographed for the Cambridge Chronicle and Somerville Journal back in the mid-70’s and early 1980’s. As a staff photographer for the Somerville Journal his news and feature story work captured city life… people\, parades\, poodles\, politics\, police and fire.
