I've had a few people email lately with questions about how to get a Passport in 24hours. Here are two ways that I know will work. 1] Cost: US$85 for passprt, US$60 rush fee. Phone one of the
State Department's public agencies and make an appointment. If all your papers are in order the feds will issue your passport that afternoon. 2] Cost: US$145 federal fees, US$130 rush fees and US$34 shipping. If you don't live near one of the public agencies or can't get an appointment you can get the help of a passport expeditor like
Travel Document Systems which promises delivery within 24hours. Best of luck and safe travels!!

Night Chicas is an anthropological tour through a damaged landscape of various Guatemalan prostitutes. Photographer
Hans Neleman travels over the bodies of these women conscious that their stories are best unearthed through the vessels of their trade. Neleman captures the sober awareness that resonates wearily, and sometimes proudly, that the women are marked, but not defined by their bodies.
