Racine99, I first want to say my condolences on the loss of your father. He was such a talented performer and I very much enjoyed researching and creating the wikipedia article on him in May 2021. I have always loved his performance on the Sweeney Todd cast album. In regards to the image you uploaded, I am not certain whether or not we can use this image without permission from Ken Howard, the photographer, unless you yourself own the rights to that picture and are able to provide evidence to that effect. You can read our policies on images here: Image use policy.4meter4 (talk) 19:57, 15 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi 4meter4,
 * Thank you for the kind words. I did not know that someone at Wikipedia started his wiki. Can I ask your name? Mine is Racine I think you did a great job. My mother was Susan Romann Kingwill, another force on broadway and off-broadway with Al Carmines. I am going to start her Wiki soon.
 * Regarding the photo, my father has a few of them with Ken's stamp that he used when producing headshots for performers. I am going to upload the back of one of the others. LMK if you need more. Racine99 (talk) 21:55, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi 4meter4,
 * I emailed the photographer and got permission to post this. I added this info to the metadata of the photo and also updated the photo with a better B&W image.
 * Thanks for the help,

 * Racine,
 * For privacy reasons I don't give out my name on wikipedia. I am glad that you approve of the article. That's excellent that the photographer responded to you. I did a little more investigation, and there is actually a formal process for accepting non-free content at Requesting copyright permission. It looks like the photo's you uploaded have been put up for deletion. You will need to follow the requesting copyright permission policies in order to have the photos available on the encyclopedia. The photographer will need to write a letter which can be found at Declaration of consent for all enquiries. Best wishes.4meter4 (talk) 13:03, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Understood @4meter4. I have asked that he write the letter and now, await his response. Thanks for the detail. Best, @Racine99 Racine99 (talk) 11:01, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
