“In New Orleans to photograph Brad Pitt for the cover of Architectural Digest, I found it interesting that no one mobbed him as he walked along. Everyone respected his privacy. At ease with the local residents, his priority was his project ,“Make It Right.” Brad enlisted architects from around the world to design affordable houses for the displaced people whose homes had been destroyed near the Industrial Canal by the devastation of Hurricane Katrina—replacing lost buildings in the Lower Ninth Ward with new, affordable homes using solar energy to produce electricity.” – Harry Benson
