In 1934, a decision had been made that would forever change life on the LSU campus. Athletic Director trainer Chellis Mike Chambers, Athletic Director T.P. Heard, swimming pool manager and intramural swimming coach William G. Hickey Higginbotham, and LSU law student Ed Laborde decided to bring a real tiger to LSU. They raised $750, collecting twenty-five cents from each student, and purchased a two-hundred-pound, one-year old tiger from the Little Rock Zoo.

Born on October 10, 1935, and like his father, originally named Sheik, his name was changed to Mike in honor of Chambers, the man most responsible for bringing him to LSU. Interestingly, Mike I must have remembered his original name because even years later Hickey Higginbotham could get him to roar just by calling Sheik.

It was early in the morning on Wednesday, October 21, 1936. Onlookers lined Highland Road, awaiting the entourage arriving from the train station. LSU students staged a campus strike equal to none...

I have loved making photographs since I got my first camera as a young boy. My hope is that my work evokes feeling and a sense of place and that someone will feel drawn to a print as I was first drawn to it when attempting to capture that moment.
