Be sure to check out Patrick's story featuring pictures from his book, 100 Polaroids, which he took inspired by the music he creates.

Next, our photographers pass along to you the rich Traditions they documented from around the world.

Lastly, in honor of the men, women, and children that they look up to, our contributors share with you the touching stories of their personal Heroes. Also discover how five deaf athletes have adapted their lives in order to succeed in their respective sports.
