I kept all of the negatives
they went into a file drawer in my
studio and sat there for 40 years or so
and
[Music]
I just forgot about on some occasions
they almost got thrown out I just got a
call from Anderson I've been invited up
to this Glass House and do you think you
could come up and take some pictures of
me up there I said well sure and it was
a cold I remember a cold winter's
morning and we got there about nine
o'clock in the morning we were just so
glad to have found the place because we
do have wasn't given very good
directions by Andy that's for sure
there was nobody here that we could see
in the house so I walked slowly around
and came across what I now know is the
guest house I think as we approached we
thought this might be the garage and as
I was walking past I glanced in and
there's Andy who saw me and sits up in
bed grabs his sunglasses and puts them
on and I lift my camera take a shot of
him and then I noticed fingers and her
face appearing at the bottom over the
cell and I realized and he's not alone
there's someone else in the room with
him and I hesitated I thought oh this
son this is an invasion of privacy but I
thought scrape I shoot it so I took one
shot and then quickly walked away
your antenna turned out to be a David
Whitney
[Music]
it was a photographer's dream to be in
the Glass House and the light was
incredible so it was so easy and after
photographing in dim lit elevators and
nightclubs to be able to actually take
some beautifully lit photographs so for
me it was a highlight the perfect
shooting conditions and I took full
advantage you know I asked Andy to come
over to the window so that I could get a
shot from him from the outside and
Phillip happened to be working at the
desk behind him and our great shots of
andy and david whitney off by themselves
having a great time laughing and they
seemed totally unaware of me so as
almost as if the wars weren't last you
know they just carried on as normal
and then I took the opportunity to
photograph
Andy in the wild because I had only
pretty much seen him at nighttime
[Music]
I've never taken an artsy fartsy
photograph you know I mean I am a
photographer if somebody thinks that
what I did was art then good for them
you know I'll take it
[Music]
can't be simplicity
and light
[Music]
it was one of my most memorable
assignments for Andy
[Music]
you
