Carlos Nuzman

Last Thursday I had the pleasure of working for the Brazilian Olympic Committee to photograph the induction of their President, Carlos Nuzman to the Volleyball Hall of Fame in Holyoke MA. It was a fabulous two day event, This is a shot of Mr Nuzman and his wonderful wife just after his induction. According to the Hall of fame:”President of the Brazilian Olympic Committee since 1995, Carlos Arthur Nuzman began his career as an athlete. He played volleyball with the Brazilian team for two World Championships (1962, 1966) and the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. Nuzman was the president of the Brazilian Volleyball Federation from 1975 to 1995, an era of many victories for Brazilian men’s volleyball. During that time, Brazil won first place at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, and was the champion of the 1993 World League and the 1989 Youth World, Junior Youth (3 times). The Brazilian women’s team was the 1994 World Vice Champion, the 1995 Grand Prix winner and World Youth Champion (1987, 1989).”
