I photographed TV producers last week for the new Variety Weekly.
According to the Huffington Post, "Hollywood trade magazine Variety launches a new era on Tuesday with the publication of its first weekly glossy magazine focused on in-depth, analytical stories aimed squarely at entertainment industry professionals.
A week after 80 years of daily publication ceased following a change in ownership, the new editors at Variety say the magazine will shine a "laser focus" on the business needs of Hollywood rather than moving toward the more celebrity-filled content seen on other entertainment outlets."
It is kind of exciting I got to shoot for the very first Variety Weekly... it is somewhat historical.
Basically I took straight portraits of the TV producers capturing glimpses of their personality while talking TV. It was intriguing to hear them talk about their current favorite TV shows and what makes a good television show:

I photographed Jennifer sometime last year and she just launched her new website. I like the feeling of her hair covering face for some reason. I think it adds a little bit of mystery.
Bill Snyder passed away last week at the age
of 100 years old. Snyder was one of the WWII veterans in my book. He was
the first American Marine soldier to marry an Australian women in WWII.
