I worked in the New Center area, I
always kept a camera in my car, and
I'd walk around during my lunch
hour taking pictures of various urban
scenes and graffiti. I had a lot of fun
with it.
"I discovered the Heidelberg
Project while wandering around the
city. Artist Tyree Guyton uses things
like piles of old doors or hoods from
discarded automobiles, arranges them
and paints them in different colors.
I've taken many pictures of his work,
which he's used in his own exhibits all
over the world."

Kudos: Decades
Of Photos
Harold Gross' 84th birthday on May 3
marked more than the beginning of a
new year It was also the opening of his
first photography exhibition, which is
being held at the Oak Park Public
Library.
Gross took up photography 25 years
ago and his exhibit, up through mid-
June, offers 45 photographs. According
to his daughter, Elayne Gross, her
father's nickname is the "Wanderer"
because of his frequent shooting trips
around Detroit.
His photographs of the Heidelberg
Project, a collection of outdoor environ-
mental art by Detroit artist Tyree
Guyton, have been exhibited throughout
the world.
A native Detroiter, Gross has lived in
Oak Park for more than 50 years, where
he and his late wife, Harriet, raised four
children: Elayne (Paul Neuburger) Gross
of Oak Park, Steven (Chrisy) Gross of
Chicago, Dr Marty (Suzy) Gross of
West Bloomfield and Bill Gross of Ann
Arbor.
All of his children inherited his artis-
tic ability. Elayne and Steven are profes-
sional photographers; Marty takes pic-
tures as a hobby; and Bill produces cloth
art, such as tie-dye.
Still active at 84, Gross works full
0-
time at Annex Electric near Joy and
Dexter in Detroit, a few blocks from his
childhood home.
How did you become interested in
photography?
'About 25 years ago, my son Steven,
now a professional photographer in
Chicago, got a deal on a new Nikon
when his Air Force unit was stationed
in Germany, so he sent me his old
camera. That started it for me. I was
fascinated right from the beginning."
What are your favorite subjects?
"I've always had an interest in wild-
flowers, and I'd travel to various local
parks and nature areas looking for
How does it feel to finally have your
own exhibit?
"It's a good feeling; I'm really enjoying
it. Photography has been a great
source of pleasure for me — it's in my
blood. I intend to keep doing it as
long as I can. It's a great pastime."

Dear
Bar6"fhought
you might like
to share my
story with your
readers — per-
haps to illustrate that both weight
loss and body composition are
important. Your Client, Kay.
K
ay's Story (paraphrased):
Barb, when I came to you,
my principal focus was on
losing weight. That had always
been my benchmark of a success-
ful diet. You counseled me on the
importance of proper nutrition,
lowering my fat intake, and im-
proving my body composition (my
muscle-to-fat ratio).

Soon after we started, I be-

— I lowered the intensity
of my workouts, exercised
more frequently/longer,
and used weight train-

muscle mass and lower
my body fat.

I ./ little slower than I ex-
pected, but you explained
that by increasing my
muscle mass (lean muscle burns
more calories), I was turning my
body into a "fat/calorie burning
machine" for the long term.
I've reduced my body fat from
36% to 30 % (my goal is 25%),
and am well on my way to reach-
ing my weight loss goal. Not only
do I look and feel much better,
I know I'm much more likely to
keep my weight off permanently.
Thank you, Your Client, Kay.
