I had the opportunity to head up to New York City to interview one of the most famous Rock Photographers ever, Bob Gruen. Bob captured Rock and Roll in its heyday, living with bands, joining them on the road and sharing in the lifestyle. He captured one of the most recognizable images in the history of music photography: John Lennon wearing his New York City T-Shirt. Could you image being asked to be John and Yoko's personal photographer? Being that close to one of the most respected and successful musicians of all time? Bob was more than just a photographer for them, he was their friend. I sat down with Bob in his studio in NYC for this candid conversation that could shave gone on for hours. The stories are awe inspiring and leave you wanting to hear more. Lucky for you a documentary on Bob's work was just released on Showtime so please check your local listings for the viewing schedule. To check out Bob's photo books you can do an amazon search for Bob Gruen. Enjoy this once in a lifetime conversation with Bob Gruen.
