I love Danielle Scruggs, the woman who’s been photographing events for us. I love her work so much I asked her to write a little something about herself for the site. I present to you Danielle Scruggs, in her own words:

Hometown: Chicago proper (Edgewater/Rogers Park to be exact )

Age: 22

Education: Howard University (’06), Maryland Institute College of Art (start fall 2007)

Other facts: Avid bookworm, photography enthusiast, studied journalism and photography in college. If you don’t see me with a camera in my hand, you’ll likely see me with a book. I’m available to shoot for people until I leave for Charm City next month. And I’ll be shuttling back and forth a lot between Chicago & Baltimore.

What led me to Literago: Loved the website after reading a profile about the creators in the Chicago Reader’s Spring Book Issue and, being a nerd for books, wanted to support a site devoted to literary happenings in Chicago. (EDITOR’S NOTE: And we want to support her, so you should ask her to shoot your events)
