entry description
This is a working portrait of Brian LaPalme, a human flame thrower at the Walker Brothers traveling circus. I am fascinated with these small circus troupes and their way of life, and sadly, they are disappearing. The Walker Brothers Show remains only one of the six that are preforming in the United States. I strive to document these smaller circuses while they are still part of our American landscape.back to gallery
