This craftsman is a regular presence in Washington Square Park. He makes beaded jewelry and sells it at a very low price. He told me many people assume he is a dope user and do not buy his work thinking he will just spend the money on dope. He said he was just trying to make a living by making and selling the beaded creations. I was very impressed with his industry, organization and kind hearted nature.
He allowed me to photograph his shop in the park.
A few photos of his setup can be seen at http://www.pbase.com/hjsteed/wsp_bead_jewelry_craftsman .
