Kid Stringer: The Early Career of Chris Ian Garlington

Paperboy

At the age of 10, Chris spent a few hours after school each day wrapping newspapers in rubber bands, loading up a large canvas carrying bag, and riding his bike along his paper route, delivering the evening edition of the regional newspaper, The Times Herald.

Photojournalist

At the age of 14, Chris took a photo that was published on the front page of the newspaper he used to deliver. This lit a fire within him to pursue photojournalism throughout his years in high school. By the time he graduated, he had been published more than 500 times and photographed then-President Bill Clinton at 'The President's Summit for America's Future in Philadelphia.'

Filmmaker

Chris went on to work in Hollywood on feature film sets and brief stints with TV shows including America's Got Talent and Shark Tank. He later created his own production company, Indigo Skylab, to offer his unique perspective in a number of ways.

A Moment of Reflection

Surrendering to the Unknown

At the end of 2018, my mother and I were severely injured in a head-on crash caused by a driver who failed to yield. Had anyone been going a few miles per hour faster, it would have been fatal. The crash didn't take my life, but it took my livelihood. In the years since impact, a lot has changed. My recovery continues today.
