My first cover was shot by Neil Leifer. I had great conversations with him about photography. I was amazed that he could get a job at SI without a college degree. This magazine was publilshed on my mom’s birthday so it was a great present for her. Pretty soon I was seeing a lot of kids on campus reading this issue and I realized how big of a deal basketball was at UCLA.
