Credits: The first two photographs above were taken by Shirley Schwarz. The record of Prof. Marsilio and me is by her husband Patrick McIntyre. Maddy’s professional shoot took place in the studio of JRP Bay Area.  The vast majority of the other family photos are by Lisa Yang (most of the exceptions being when she is in the picture, so that another family member took the shot).
