If you've ever been to a swanky fundraiser or cocktail party in Philadelphia, you've probably run into HughE Dillon(@HughE_Dillon). He's been called Philly's paparazzi (yes, all by himself), and for ten years, HughE and his camera have been just about everywhere. And he's taken the tens of thousands of readers of his blog Philly Chit Chat along for the ride. This week on Scroll Down, why HughE decided Philadelphia needed a paparazzo, how he built a career out of it, and the deeply personal story behind his work as an advocate for suicide prevention.
