Farewell: Marice Cohn Band and Joe Rimkus Jr., Miami Herald Staff Photographers


Miami Herald photo legends Marice Cohn Band and Joe Rimkus Jr. say their final goodbyes in the Herald photo studio with colleagues as they retire today after a combined 75 years of documenting life in South Florida.

Marice spent most of her time pushing peoples buttons as well as her camera's as a staff photographer for almost 35 years. Joe Rimkus Jr. spent most of his time following jocks on the field, courts and rinks.

On Monday Joe will reflect on his memories with a story about his life's work during the last 40 years. Marice will follow-up with a story of her own soon after.
