In this episode landmark photojournalist Rowland Scherman graces the podcast with his presence along with his close friend Michael "Judge" Jones. I couldn't be more appreciative and honored that Rowland spent the time for this interview, it was a true pleasure, thank you Judge Jones for facilitating this special occasion.
Rowland's illustrious career in photojournalism is storied; I'll briefly highlight a few points: Rowland embarked as the first Peace Corps photographer, captured countless cultural icons, shot Dylan Album covers, won a Grammy, captured Kennedy family photos & campaigns, photographed Andy Warhol, the Beatles, Arthur Ashe, and so many more. As one of the most historically significant photojournalists of the 20th century who trailblazed through the 60's, 70's and beyond, this was a really special moment to spend time hearing Rowland's genuine take on these significant moments captured with his camera.
Judge Jones and his wife Christine edited and produced the book about Rowland titled "Timeless: Photography of Rowland Scherman" available HERE to order.
Also, please do check out Rowland's website www.rowlandscherman.com to see his works. Additionally, Christine & Michael Jones have a collection of Rowland's work which they are selling locally in Orleans, and if there is interest from any listeners to see some of these originals, please email capeandislandspodcast@gmail.com and I'll connect you directly with the fantastic Jones duo.
Thank you so much for listening as always.
