DEAN MCCORD / WRITER The Raleigh-based health care attorney also writes about food from time to time. He has finally come to grips with his excessive culinary indulgences, particularly when exploring a new city such as Charlotte, as he did in this issue’s At the Table. “I was getting tired of all the negativity my friends had about the Charlotte food scene, and so I may have overdone it by visiting 27 different eating and drinking establishments. And what I found was a community that knows that it may not be as evolved as the Triangle’s food, but they’re trying hard to fix that. It will be interesting to see what kind of food town it’ll be in five or ten years.”

CHARLES MARSHALL / WRITER The Raleigh lawyer also plays music with the Balsa Gliders. In this month’s Hear piece, he reflects on U2. “My favorite U2 album is actually Achtung Baby, but The Joshua Tree was the first CD I ever owned and the first U2 tour I ever saw. When the band announced their 30th anniversary tour earlier this year, I was struck by the feverpitched rush for pricey tickets among my 40-something peers. Talking to friends and musicians who first heard the record as high-schoolers, I quickly learned the influence of the record had grown to make lasting impressions well into adulthood.”

ELIZABETH GALECKE

/ PHOTOGRAPHER The Triangle family photographer also has personal work focusing on quiet landscape vignettes from daily meditative walks. In this issue, she captured the subjects of both Givers and Our Town. “I was so excited when assigned two longtime clients, Alice Lutz and Adrienne Cole. I have photographed them with their families over many years. It was wonderful to capture them in a different way, as individual strong female leaders.”

DIANA BLOOMFIELD

/ PHOTOGRAPHER The native North Carolinian has been an exhibiting photographer for over 35 years. In this issue’s Through the Lens, she showcases her specialties in 19th century printing techniques and pinhole and toy cameras through images of her daughter. “She is the perfect subject – beautiful, inspiring, inventive, curious, intuitive, and both interesting and interested. The very act of photographing Annalee through all these years has been illuminating, inspiring, fun, and, most importantly, a real gift – made that much more special because she is not only her own person, self-aware and strong, but she’s also my daughter.”
