Slices of Work in Latin America and the Caribbean: Transcending Place, Space, and Time

Our World of Work is a series of photography books that uses the lens to celebrate people working in a particular place, at a specific time, and in a specific space. Images were photographed over 25 years of travel throughout 75 countries, and in most cases with my wife, Vera Valeau. The book's underlying theme is identifying and celebrating the ordinary people who work to survive globally under various influences, conditions, controls and circumstances, over which most often they have no control, little interest, and, most importantly, no knowledge of how it affects them.

Slices of Work in Latin America and the Caribbean: Transcending Place, Space, and Time portrays the social and environmental working conditions of a segment of the region's population. Through narration, poetry, storytelling, and photography, the book aims to introduce readers to a culturally pluralistic, diverse, and dynamic society of ordinary people. It celebrates the unique contributions of each culture and the diversity that enriches our global workforce.
