The Rickster

Ricky Powell aka the Rickster aka 'the fourth Beastie Boy' dropped by Wieden + Kennedy last week to give a colorfully impromptu narration of his pocket full of slides. He had some iconic shots of early DMC, LL Cool J and the Beastie Boys, amongst other NYC legends and characters.

The guy has always carried a camera around, and like Forrest Gump, has wound up in the right place at the right time over and over.

It was inspiring work and makes me want to go take a lot more pictures.

Thanks Rickster!
