Photographer Richard Avedon shaped America’s notion of culture and style for nearly 60 years, while his inventiveness produced some of the most iconic portraits of the last half-century. Avedon himself became as famous as his images, and was featured on the cover of Newsweek as well as being the inspiration for the fictional character Dick Avery in the 1957 film, ‘Funny Face’, starring Fred Astaire. Here, Avedon is photographed by David Seymour on the film set, advising Astaire on his role.
