THROUGH HIS LENS:
HARRY BENSON’S PORTRAITS OF OUR WORLD
Ground Floor Gallery May 6 - 31
Scottish-born photojournalist Harry Benson arrived in the U.S. with
The Beatles in 1964–and took the first American photo of the Fab
Four. Architectural Digest is proud to honor Mr. Benson’s
illustrative career by sponsoring the first-ever Houston exhibit of
his photography at the Decorative Center Houston. Benson, a regular
contributor to the magazine, has captured most of the highlights–and
lowlights of this country’s watershed events. He was in the Los
Angeles hotel ballroom when Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated. He
stood close to Richard Nixon when the president announced his
resignation. He was on the Meredith March with Martin Luther King.
He captured a Madonna-esque portrait of recently-slain Benazir
Bhutto cradling her son in her arms–and he has photographed every
U.S. President from Eisenhower to George W. Bush. Not many “Bold
Face Named” icons have escaped his lens. Benson has shot portraits
of such diverse luminaries as: Princess Di, James Brown, Al Pacino,
Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra and then-wife Mia Farrow, Bette
Midler, Greta Garbo, Judy Garland, Mick Jagger, Elizabeth Taylor,
Truman Capote, Alfred Hitchcock, Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg,
to name just a few.
