Pulitzer
prize winning, and best selling author James Michener, seldom granted
interviews or photo shoots. Michener famous for such books as Hawaii,
Tales of the South Pacific, Centennial to name a few, resided in
Bucks County, PA, where this photograph was taken by the 19 year
old photographer. Landis used a Mamiya RB67 camera with a Mamiya
180mm f4.5 lens and Kodak Tri-x black and white film. Mark Stettler,
assisted on the shoot. Jack Nochton's VIP Color Lab (Bethleham,
PA) developed the film and contact sheets. TIME initially published
this photo. A year or so later on, the NEW YORK TIMES Book Review
also ran a shot from the session.
