Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to photograph the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) Times Square Ivory Crush with the African Wildlife Foundation. Both the pre-crush reception at Tavern on the Green and the main crush event drew leaders of the world's biggest conservation organizations, celebrities and politicians together. Though not the first ivory crush the USFWS has held in the U.S., the choice to hold the event in Times Square made this crush even more unique.
