Early in the year the playwright, Tom Stoppard, had a portrait done for the "Playwright Series".
Then the Interior Design maven, Mariette Himes Gomez, and I worked together to create some more portraits for her website and for the cover of her newest book, "Apartments". Previous Susan Johann portraits had graced the cover of her first book, "Rooms"
I flew to Los Angeles this summer where I did portraits of several international classical musicians. The great violinist, Midori, pianist, Jiayi Shi and German violinist Korbin Altenberger. The shoots were done in the Culver City studio, Studio 8663.

Note: This website accompanied the 2002-2005 traveling exhibition Women of Our Time: Twentienth Century Photographs from the National Portrait Gallery. The show as installed at the National Portrait Gallery from October 10, 2008 through February 1, 2009 has been expanded to 90 images, many of which are included in this website. However, a few substitutions have been required for preservation of the original objects.
In the exhibition "Women of Our Time: Twentieth Century Photographs," the National Portrait Gallery features women who have challenged and changed America. Drawn exclusively from the Portrait Gallery’s collection, these revealing portraits show women who have reached the summit of achievement in politics, business, the arts, sports, performance, music and science. The exhibition includes photographs of Amelia Earhart, Althea Gibson, Billie Holiday, Helen Keller, Marilyn Monroe, Georgia O'Keeffe, Gertrude Stein, Gloria Steinem and Wendy Wasserstein. Featuring distinguished 20th century photographers the exhibition includes works by Philippe Halsman, Lotte Jacobi, Lisette Model, Irving Penn and Edward Steichen, among others. “Women of Our Time” is as much about the art of photographic portraiture as it is a celebration of its subjects. This exhibition is sponsored by The Morris and Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation and Robert Yellowless.
