For Mother Jones, I spent about 36 hours in New York photographing the circus outside the lower Manhattan court where former president Donald Trump was arraigned on 34 felony counts relating to the falsification of business documents in order to cover up a sex scandal with adult film actress Stormy Daniels. It was one of the biggest media circuses I’ve ever seen, and a very long time to be stuck on a downtown street corner in the sun! 

Thanks, as always, to Mark for taking the pitch!
