15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
The Oldest Barbershop in Texas

This is a typical day at Shepard's Barber Shop in Conroe, Texas. The shop is more than 105 years old and Elvis Presley got his hair cut here in 1955 when he came to perform at Conroe High School. Leon has worked at the shop since he was 17, and now he owns it.
