You might call this the flip-side of Helmut Newton's "Big Nudes".

I saw that article earlier today. I love the concept he's working with & will probably buy the book once it's released.

Same here. He is being recognized for being a celebrety rather than for the merit of his photography. But I too, am simply jealous.

Barrett, I believe that Leonard lives in a upscale Manhattan apartment. I do know that a few years ago, Architectual Digest did a spread of his pad. Actor turned photographer, just like Dennis Hopper, turned photographer/artist. Do we see a pattern of older actors who are not in demand, then turn to photography?

Mark: Well, we can go as far back as Graham Nash and Spohia Loren (my generation, anyway) regarding individuals better-known in other fields, who took up the camera while not-quite past their prime. Nimoy's work is a bit hit-or-miss, IMO. Then again, so is mine.

Barrett, what did Sophia Loren the 'godess of all godesses' do after acting?
