I hope I live to 92 like Irving Penn

To understand modeling and photography is to understand the works and life of Irving Penn. If every day you learn something learn about the life of this man:

"Penn's models may be alluring, but he emphasizes their self-absorbed beauty in a way that makes them seem cold and inhuman," the Atlantic magazine wrote in 1985, reviewing a retrospective of his work at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1984."
