Home, Away from Home

The NYPR Archive Collections | Jan 1, 2000

We visit with sailors aboard a merchant ship, and Quebecois Christmas tree sellers, whose livelihoods require that they spend weeks, months or even years far from the comforts of home. Also, a radio play about going home, starring Lili Taylor and Glen Fitzgerald. And a profile of portrait photographer Elsa Dorfman, who captures something essential about her clients by making them feel at home.
