Event Description : 'Monk with a Camera' film screening as part of Films On Spirituality And Faith Series.
Nicholas Vreeland walked away from a worldly life of privilege to become a Tibetan Buddhist monk. Grandson of the legendary Vogue editor, Diana Vreeland, and trained by Irving Penn to become a photographer, Nicholas’ life changed drastically upon meeting a Tibetan master, one of the teachers of the Dalai Lama.  Soon thereafter, he gave up his glamorous life to live in a monastery in India, where he studied Buddhism for fourteen years.  In an ironic twist of fate, Nicholas went back to photography to help his fellow monks rebuild their monastery.  Recently, the Dalai Lama appointed Nicholas as Abbot of the monastery, making him the first Westerner in Tibetan Buddhist history to attain such a highly regarded position
