I am the appointed photographer at many of our meetings at the office. Often, that means trying to take interesting pictures of what one of my colleagues calls “talking heads” (i.e., they’re just not that interesting). But sometimes I get to meet and photograph some famous and/or interesting people. Here are two from the files:

Dennis Wilder, Special Assistant to President George W. Bush and Senior Director for East Asian Affairs at the National Security Council

Christopher Hill, Ambassador to Iraq (at the time, he was Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs)
