Walter Iooss Jr., Reflections on Michael Jordan, Tiger & more.
ICYMI, Fire Pit Podcast No. 5 tells the story of Walter Iooss Jr., who shares several stories about his relationship with Michael Jordan, chasing Tiger Woods, almost botching a portrait session with Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer, and how he captured arguably the most famous image in NFL history.
Iooss has been taking pictures professionally for six decades. He has shot every Super Bowl. He has over 300 covers of Sports Illustrated, which includes action, portrait and swimsuit. His versatility, personality and talent, along with the trust and respect of his subjects, plus his passion for sports and his craft have earned him a spot in the International Hall of Fame of Photography.
The best... Sports Illustrated was always an Iooss Jr fest when I was younger.. just the best. I got some letters published in the 19th hole (back of SI) when younger comparing shots and asking if they were the same play of the same game but printed in months separated issues. (yes came the response)
