Flukinger, the Senior Research Curator of Photography at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center (University of Texas). Accompanying this exhibition is an in-depth interview by Terry Gross with Judith Fox on NPR's Fresh Air. Transcripts are available online as well as a downloadable podcast, please click here for more information. Following its showing at Andrea Meislin Gallery, I Still Do will continue to travel to FiftyCrows Foundation in San Francisco and the Southeast Museum of Photography in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Three years into their marriage, Judith Fox's husband, Dr. Edmund Ackell, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Over the course of the next ten years, Fox watched as the man who used to perform surgery, fly planes, and run universities, forgot how to turn on the coffee maker, place a phone call, or remember what his wife had told him two minutes earlier. Fox dedicates this book to other caregivers in an effort to reduce their sense of isolation, and to help de-stigmatize the disease.

"This is a lovely book about a devastating problem-Alzheimer's. The pages are like poetry and the photos say more than words. Anyone who has cared for a loved one with Alzheimer's will relate to and appreciate every one of these pages."
-Former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor
