| Classification: E Running Time: 57 mins Cat. No: 198786 |

David Hoffman talks with 15 of the greatest Life Magazine photographers in this special documentary, made for the 50th anniversary of Life Magazine. Each photographer presents his/her best photographs and tells the behind-the-scenes stories of how they were made. The results are extremely valuable for photographers, but also deeply emotional for other viewers who want to relive some of the greatest moments of the 20th century, and some of the silliest as well.
Great anecdotes courtesy of some of the most famous Life photographers: Gordon Parks, Carl Mydans, Nina Leen and Loomis Dean.
“The program is unforgettable testimony to the power of the photograph.” Meg Whitcomb, Video Review
“I had the chance to sit with 15 of the best of these great photographers and hold their best photographs in front of them and hear their most personal, analytical and profound reactions." David Hoffman
