FAQ
The windows on the bus
The original designs for the Once Upon a Bus stained-glass windows were contributed by Chicago based creative photographer Ken Schulze. Ken's images help to create a shifting, natural light environment that reflects and informs every top-deck experience with a dream-like quality that is both soothing and transporting...
The transformation of the bus is amazing. For 20 years I tried to become a writer with a lot of disappointing stops and starts. So it's gratifying to think that photos of mine may have a positive, if subliminal, effect on a future generation of storytellers. Who knows? One day, in a roundabout way, thanks to your efforts, both of us might have some small effect on English literature and cinema... Best wishes for continual success of your project.
Ken
Ken Schulze is a freelance photographer who has looked through glass most of his life and resides in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois, USA. Many of his images appear on Shutterstock.com Alamy.com and other professional photo sites used by creatives and designers. We are most grateful for Ken's enthusiasm and kind generosity towards the Storytelling Bus project.
