Intersections

Uhlmann, Karen F.: - Karen F Uhlmann observed a police officer, who had been on the scene of a hit-and-run death of a child, return to the intersection four or five afternoons a week to videotape and ticket cars. His grief and dedication were heartbreaking--and became the seed for Intersections.
