I was sad to read this story today.
Walter Novak took my pictures for my place in history as Best Barfly of 2006 in Scene magazine (and old Scene’s links don’t work anymore — crappy). He was such a fun guy to work with, and incredibly talented.
I guess I didn’t realize the full effect of the merger of Cleveland’s alt-weeklies.
Goodbye, Walter! I’ll look you up when I visit Czech Republic again.

Walter took my picture too when I was in Scene (in someone else’s article) about 4 years ago. The former publisher of Scene is related to me by marriage and he moved to Nashville to take a related position. His wife and kids stayed behind to get the house sold.
Yeah, good luck with that.
