20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Frontline in the Operating Room

Very few people get to see what happens in the operating room and seldom do patient's have any recollection of the team that is part of their surgery. As 20 year veteran of the OR, I wanted to celebrate my colleagues, who everyday, show up and do their job, with very little thanks. We are the people who have been "behind the mask", even before masks were even a thing for the general public.
