my mom (Azar Hammond) took painting and photography classes, then worked as photo lab manager at the Corcoran in the late 1970s. her experience at the Corcoran was one of the most exhilarating and beloved of her entire lifetime. i will never forget the smell of paints and chemicals as i walked the winding corridors of the school toward her nook in the photo lab, visiting her frequently on my way home from high school. she passed on 3/20/13 (Spring Equinox/ Persian New Year).
