House committees propose Iron Range cancer rates

...Two House committees held a joint meeting Tuesday to hear testimony on the disease.

Health officials have linked They've also found men living in the state's Iron Range region have a high rate of the cancer.

Rep.

Karen Clark, DFL-Minneapolis, says the state needs more data.

Clark included a provision in the omnibus public health bill that requires the Department of Health to track the occupational history of people with cancer.

"We don't know that right now," she said.

"We don't track that in Minnesota.

We don't track it very well in this whole country.

There are other countries that do a very careful job of that.

Questions remain about whether the cancer is linked to taconite dust.

Clark wants lawmakers to travel to the Iron Range later this year to talk to people who've been affected by the disease.

It's fascinating to see such a famous persona portrayed in a private context, one so organic to who he really was." The approximately forty color images comprising the show at SFAE are culled from about 400 that Barbara McQueen shot during the time she spent with her late husband, among them ones set in locales including Trancas Beach in Malibu, the airfields in Santa Paula, Ketchum, Idaho and on the road.

Previously unpublished and unshown, many of the photos have never been seen outside of McQueen's family and friends, as Barbara has waited until now to share them with the public through an exhibition and book project she sees as a tribute to Steve.

They will be available for sale in limited editions of fifty signed & numbered 16" x 20" prints.

The photos are also featured in the just-released book "Steve McQueen: ...
