“The first thing I did with my very first camera was climb
Mt. Fuji. Climbing Mt. Fuji is a lesson in determination and
moderation. It would be fair to ask if I took the moderation
part to heart. But it certainly was a lesson in respecting
your camera. If I was going to live with this thing, I was
going to have to think about what that meant. There were not
going to be any pictures without it." —Annie
Leibovitz
Annie Leibovitz describes how her
pictures were made, starting with Richard Nixon's
resignation, a story she covered with Hunter S. Thompson,
and ending with Barack Obama's campaign. In between are a
Rolling Stones Tour, John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Demi Moore,
Whoopi Goldberg, The Blues Brothers, Arnold Schwarzenegger,
Keith Haring, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Patti Smith, George W.
Bush, William S. Burroughs, Kate Moss and Queen Elizabeth.
The most celebrated photographer of our time discusses
portraiture, reportage, fashion photography, lighting, and
digital cameras.
