Fabian Bachrach, iconic portrait photographer: 1917-2010

Here is an interesting story, and photos, about Fabian Bachrach from the Washington Post. Talk about some amazing portraits, wow! The lighting is perfect and such detail and clarity. He has photographed some of the most accomplished figures in recent American history. On top of all that, Fabian did much of this work with little time with the subject. At times having only 2 or 3 minutes with the person in between other appointments. That is just incredible considering that everything had to be ready to go so that the subject could just step in and have the shot done. In the case of the photo of Muhammad Ali, he had 2 minutes with him and got only 3 frames. That is someone that knows what they are doing.
