Charles Mintz: The Album Project

Around the time of his fifteenth birthday in 1990, our son Isaac developed a serious curvature of his spine. Isaac has autism. Surgery was recommended. In an attempt to help him understand the surgery, we bought him a Polaroid Spectra camera. To our surprise, the camera became his constant companion at family events - a tool for him to order his world. This project is a record of Isaac and his photographs. It is a great success story for this young man as a survivor of his five-hour scoliosis surgery and, even more, his ability to overcome his limitations and build a life independent from his parents.
