Frank Schaefer was  Methodist minister who was defrocked after it was 
discovered he?d performed a wedding for his gay son. The result deeply 
divided his congregation in Lebanon Pennsylvania. The story is now an 
original play which I just shot the poster for. Initially I?d had a crowd of 
demonstrators & counter-demonstraters in the background but it looked too 
staged and ultimately I opted for a single, dedicated protester and a 
beleaguered minister.

A fight nearly broke out while I was shooting this when a number of 
passersby thought they?d stumbled onto a real protest and wanted to get in 
on the action. I think the Leica is partly to blame for that since I didn?t 
look like an impressive professional shoot, without the big camera.
