I recently checked out your book about Studio 54. I really loved it! I liked it so much that I incorporated one of the flicks into a poster that I will paste somewhere near the old studio as part of a series of outdoor posters that I am working on for my magazine/brand, Trumbull. The poster has you credited, so I hope you won't mind that I am using your work. I swear I am not making any money from it! Just using it to tell a little imagined story about The Studio.
