FEATURE: Sam Stephenson ran across the groundbreaking works of photo-essayist Gene Smith a few years ago. Stephenson became obsessed with Smith’s photos as well as the thousands of hours of audio tapes Smith had made. Stephenson’s near-obsession eventually became “The Jazz Loft Project,” a book and traveling exhibition of Smith’s work in New York. Stephenson last year released a second book called “Gene Smith’s Sink.” He joined host Michael Glab on last week’s Big Talk.
