Mr. Pearl’s Warm Embrace_ZOO Magazine text and photos by Michael James O’Brien

Dear Shaded Viewers,

I just had dinner the other night with my dear friend Mr. Pearl and thought it would be nice to post a piece Michael James O'Brien did on him a few years ago. The year is starting out fantastically for Mr. Pearl, I will keep you posted.

Later,

Diane
