By Nancy Rica Schiff

Who blows the bugle at the Kentucky Derby? Who dusts the dinosaur bones at the Smithsonian? Who sniffs dog breath for a living? Who measures the breasts of real models? ODD JOBS introduces you to the real people who perform these truly peculiar jobs. In 65 intimate portraits, photo essayist Nancy Rica Schiff captures the personalities and occupations of these oddball professionals, providing a short profile of each. No one can say that America isn’t the home of the free, the brave, and the quirky, who will do almost anything to make an honest buck.

These little jewels of books make a very amusing gift, filled with wonderful photos and amusing profiles.
