Dick Swift n.d. W. Eugene Smith [Portraits of Photographers]
Gelatin silver print Provided by the artist - Dick Swift "W. Eugene Smith portraits shot in the Scholastics sound recording room as Smith reviewed and discussed his photos (projected) for inclusion in the "Between Birth and Death" slide set published by Concerned Photographers. The editor was Sheila Turner, of Scholastics. Fifteen of these images are in the archives at the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson.
Gene Smithà this is the photo that Smith liked so much he stated he wanted it put on his tombstone. This never came about. It did grace the cover of a Jim Hughs issue of Camera 35, however their "special" attention to the printing made it look terrible. Hughs apologized to me. " (Dick Swift)
