"Milk" the Movie: Penn Wins SAG Award


Washington, DC--We saw "Milk" while in Los Angeles in December. California was the perfect place to see the movie about the late San Francisco supervisor, Harvey Milk; so many movements begin in California. Milk was the first openly gay elected official in the United States and the movie is a reminder about what we humans can accomplish when we unite. "Milk" is a wonderful movie and the perfomances of Sean Penn and the other actors are superb. It was wonderful to see Penn win the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) award for best actor in 2008. Penn has also been nominated for an Academy Award.

Luis Gomez Photos

I am a freelance photographer and photojournalist who moved to Washington, D.C., in 2003 from Caracas, Venezuela. During my 15 years as a photographer, I have traveled the world collecting images for work and pleasure. I have taken photographs throughout the Americas, Europe and Australia, focusing on cityscapes and architecture as well as the simplicity of landscapes and people.

I studied architecture at the University of Tennessee and then returned to Venezuela to earn a B.A. degree in communications from Universidad Católica Andrés Bello in Caracas.
I was a photographer and photo editor for publishing companies while doing freelance work for local and international media outlets.

I was born to a Venezuelan mother and a Belize-American father, some of my earliest memories are of hurrying through airport terminals with a camera around my neck. I was raised in Brazil and Venezuela, and I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in Portuguese.
