bridge

A view of the George Washington Bridge through a dirty window at the Columbia University medical campus uptown. Basil's friend and mentor Laura Dean cleaned out her office after decades. It was a final salute to the view as she reminisced about the work she did - a longitudinal study of the health of gay men from 1985 - 1992 at the height of the AIDS crisis - and the colleagues and subjects she lost in the course of her work.
