Synopsis :

This intimate book of photographs follows the inspiring journey of twenty orphans who overcame tremendous hardships to form a dance troupe and become cultural ambassadors for their troubled country. They have brought their intense energy and joy to audiences across the U.S. over the past ten years, which has resulted in their support of more than 700 orphans in Uganda. Rising from the extreme poverty and devastation wrought by AIDS and civil war in Uganda to receive standing ovations while touring the best theaters in the U.S., these exceptional children bring good news from Africa.

À propos de l'auteur: Douglas Menuez has worked as a photojournalist for Time, Newsweek, Life, USA Today, Fortune and other publications. His subjects have included the Ethiopian famine, the Olympics, the AIDS crisis and the rise of Silicon Valley and its visionaries such as Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Bill Joy and John Doerr.
