The Story Behind the Legacy

Ernest Withers was scheduled to photograph Debra Nell Brittenum's first communion at St. Augustine Catholic Church, but he missed it. He arrived at the family's home later that evening and asked her to re-dress and recreate the post. Decades later, Debra was quoted as saying, 'I'm clearly asleep in the photograph, and I certainly was never an angel.'”
