Photographed ex-Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak during a rare one on one interview at the Fairmont Hotel in SF. Was shocked at the lack of security.

I showed up after the interview had started and was surprised that I did not have to show my press pass or get my bag checked. Got in with just a smile - the so called security escorted me straight up to his room.

Barak had these great expressive eyebrows that arched when he made a point. We were told we'd have a half hour interview, no more. He gave us 50 minutes...must have liked us or the questions weren't tough enough.
