Maybe five years ago I took a class at the American Film Institute. In the foyer there is a large collection of (mostly) black and white photos of "the stars". At the time they seemed to have been shot by a single photographer, at least the style suggested that to me. Do you happen to know who did them? I found many to be very striking and some simply fabulous. Thank you!
