This is Kenneth W Beek. And this is a photograph of him from several years ago.
He is a gifted writer, in my humble opinion. Truth teller. Please consider reading his book, or even just a chapter of his book TRANSIENCE. A powerful account that neither glamorizes or patronizes; a witnessing of homelessness in Portland, Maine from the inside. Well written. And well written... on an ancient cell phone with cracked screen and no internet.
