Award winning motion picture director and still photographer for the past 35 years, Bob Demchuk has photographed throughout the world. He has a wide range of knowledge and experience from covering the Vietnam War, to producing and/or directing over 500 projects. I love his work of the Pokot women. In their society, the Pokot women has no voice in any public forum and no authority within her own homestead. She is considered "foolish," like the cows for which she is traded. She is dresses in a cowhide and is valued at 60 cows which is equivalent to $3,600.
