Les Blank
We stayed at his son Harrod's camp at Burning Man. Les basically works for Harrod now. Counter to everyone else in Black Rock City, these guys were working their butts off making a documentary about Burning Man that they've been working on for 10 years. I'll never forget the image of Harrod's old art car, packed to the gills with documentarians, leaving to film the aftermath of the Burn at 4 am on Sunday morning. 60-year-old Les, no less, was standing on the side of the car, hanging on as they sped off.
