Bil Brown discusses the upcoming revival of his "Black and Gray" magazine, where he plans to feature both established and emerging artists, with Matt Mercury joining as an associate publisher. He then shares his varied professional background, from avant-garde poetry at the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics to accidentally becoming a photographer, even meeting Robert Frank through Allen Ginsberg. Brown also recounts his 15-year career as an agent, where his primary client was Amazon Fashion, managing hundreds of photographers and stylists across numerous studios, a relationship that ended when he discovered Amazon was using his talent to train their AI and sought to have him pay to hire his own talent.
