Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement.  Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    It’s a strange thing, to be connected by a person you have never met, and won’t. This is my birthday, and it nearly made me cry, as I have always had an affinity for cartography and travel. My entire life, in fact, surrounds my desire for explanation if new places and people. This particular globe looks like the one my father had growing up, so I love this photo even more. Thank you for sharing. Love, from Pensacola, Florida.

    This is the day I was born in Vallejo, Ca. What an amazing man to have taken a photo everyday for so many years. Today is 1/19/17 and I still live in Northern California.

    This was the day that I met the love of my life. We were in high school, at a cast party for Ten Little Indians. By the end of the evening after having just met, we were holding hands. We’ve been together now for 25 years, married for almost 18. We have four children and are more in love now, if that’s even possible. Love this site and the beauty of the photographs!

    May 20, 1997 was the day that I was born. So amazing to think the world around us doesn’t stop and the world just keeps on spinning.

    This is the day/year I was born. I love that it’s a photo of entertainment as I grew up singing, acting and dancing. This could not be a more perfect photo for me.

    After giving birth to my son on this day the nurse walked in the recovery room and asked me if I wanted my leg on the bed! It was literally hanging off just like in this pic!!!!!! Amazing!

    This is my birthday. I wonder who this man is and how he was important to the photographer. I love this photo journalism of Mr. Livingston’s life. It’s an amazing way to document your life.

    Kind of hard to tell exactly what’s going on but I see an ACT UP logo on a guy’s shirt. Leads to me to think it’s a rally of sorts for either LGBT rights or AIDS research.

    Didn’t know that on the day of my birth, there was a rally of sorts in my very own city. Pretty cool.
