EPISODE SPONSORS:
We are finishing off this week with a conversation with renowned photographer and co-author of the acclaimed book, A Newport Summer, Nick Mele.
Regarded as the Slim Aarons of our time, Nick is a summer resident of Newport. As someone who also spends time in the summer in Newport, I loved comparing notes with Nick about all of his favorite secret spots.
Nick and I cover everything from walks, beaches, restaurants, places for cocktails, and all of the fantastic activities you can only do in Newport - from visiting Gilded Age Mansions to the International Tennis Hall of Fame, to coffee on mansion lawns on Sundays, to kayaking in the harbor to hear the Newport Folk Festival.
Nick and I spent so much time discussing his impressive career before we got to our talk about Newport that I have decided to release that part of the conversation—about Nick’s work and career—later this summer. But in the meantime, here is Nick sharing all of his insider tips on one of the all-time greatest summer towns - Newport!
