n 1971, I was three years old when I saw an image of a crying Indian on a television commercial for Keep America Beautiful's Ad campaign. When I connected the dots between my picking up litter on the Upper East Side and Iron Eyes Cody, advertising had my attention.

I had missed it at the theater; caught it on Vudu (much gratitude to Vudu); and, found myself in the midst of a Tom Hardy marathon (Warrior) until morning - much gratitude to Mr. Hardy.
