Description
"As an official photographer, I was witnessing and capturing history upfront, whether in a backroom hearing private discussions or in a dining room having a meal with the likes of Arafat in his compound, or at a table next to President Clinton with his chief photographer Robert McNeely. It was a career where I was on call 24/7."
- Jean-Marc Carisse

Excerpt: Canada's Photographer l Photographe du Canada: From Lowertown to the World Stage l De la Basse-ville à la scène mondiale (by (author) Jean-Marc Carisse; introduction by Jean Chretien)
As an official photographer, I was witnessing and capturing history upfront, whether in a backroom hearing private discussions or in a dining room having a meal with the likes of Arafat in his compound, or at a table next to President Clinton with his chief photographer Robert McNeely. Situations were unpredictable and there were times when I had to wait without a meal. It was unpredictable. It was a career where I was on call 24/7.
