Annie Leibovitz. (51min, NR) In keeping with the theme of Career Day, this video is about a famous photographer known for her photographs of the rich and famous. Notes optional...watching is not.
Produced in 1993, this documentary depicts the development of Annie Leibovitz's career as a celebrity photographer, which she began after studying painting at the San Francisco Art Institute. Giving up a position as staff photographer at Rolling Stone magazine, she went on tour with Mick Jagger, and the photographs of this period reveal the anguish and torment of being a famous musician. This documentary also emphasizes the artistic and metaphorical nature of her portraits: a naked John Lennon embraces Yoko Ono dressed in black just hours before he was murdered; Clint Eastwood stands, but is bound up by a rope; Whoopee Goldberg is captured in a bathtub with legs, arms, and laughing face protruding out of soapy water (looks like milk). At times the photographer's inspiration comes from the person she is portraying, such as when Keith Haring paints a room and then paints his nude body to match the room. We see footage of how she pursues a shot for the cover of Vanity Fair, setting up her equipment in various locations to take provocative photographs of Demi Moore. A naked Demi Moore is painted with a blue suit, while Leibovitz anxiously waits to take the photographs. Produced for London Weekend Television, this 51-minute-long program, although Unrated, should be watched with parental guidance as it contains partial nudity (but only to the degree of which appeared on the front cover of Rolling Stones and Vanity Fair, such as Demi Moore and John Lennon) and some brief explicit language, and also talks about the photographer's drug addiction. Nevertheless, through this gifted photographer's vision we get a sweeping view of the 1970s and '80s in the celebrity worlds of music, acting, and politics. --Anne Barclay Morgan
Tuesday, 03/24/09 - Orchard Represents by Getty Images announced today a special multi-assignment collaboration with the internationally renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz. Leibovitz's distinctive approach and signature style has led her to become one of the world's most prolific photographers of our generation.
Annie Leibovitz is one of the most well-known and celebrated living photographers. Her distinctive, witty portraits have appeared on magazine covers for more than thirty years and her signature work is widely emulated.
The magazine was known for its political coverage beginning in the 1970s, with the enigmatic and controversial gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. Rolling Stone magazine changed its format in the 1990s to appeal to younger readers,[3] often focusing on young television or film actors and pop music. This led to criticism that the magazine was emphasizing style over substance.[4] In recent years, the magazine has resumed its traditional mix of content, including in-depth political stories, and has seen its circulation increase.
