Bernie Boston, 74

Bernie Boston has passed.

Boston was the D.C. photo chief for the L.A. Times when I met him in 1992. Several of you have heard the story of that very uncomfortable meeting. He was as kind and gracious as any one could ever be, yet I was scared to death he was about to sue me …

I wish I’d gotten to know him better.

David Burnett has a nice post about him today.
