Last October the fantastic team from RRG | EDU stopped by Jay's studio in Brooklyn, NY, to talk some photography. Jay is featured in one of the most popular interviews by Gary and Rob, which is now available on iTunes, as they discuss a broad range of topics beginning with how Jay transitioned from painting to photography that led to a 63-year career in the industry. Jay also shares stories of his favorite assignments, his unfortunate blunder photographing Sammy Davis Jr together with Marylin Monroe, and working with Elle MacPherson and Sheryl Tiegs. He addresses how the business of photography has changed throughout his career and offers suggestions to young photographers just starting out in the industry, along with his thoughts about mentorships.
