CNN PRODUCER NOTE CNN PRODUCER NOTE Sherbien traveled 15 hours to interview Whang Od, the last Kalinga tattoo artist in the Philippines, for a local talk show. Od is in her nineties and was previously featured on National Geographic. Sherbien, a tattoo virgin, got a tattoo of a centipede while he was there. 'She was in her old age but she does the tattooing perfectly,' he said. 'Her eyes are still sharp that she can draw a line and pierce my skin with the help of thorn from a tree brilliantly. She knows where to put pressure so that I can feel less pain.' The centipede tattoo symbolizes 'team work in the community and the head is me as a leader,' he said.
