    Long time R & T photographee. I don't know how many Ferrari books he authored but there was one book about 1000 cars You Must drive Before you Die, something like that. I wonder if his photo archives are his or R & T magazine?

    Phil Hill and the Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa he co-drove to win Le Mans in 1958. Of all the photos I took of Phil, this is my favorite...Herbert Johnson helmet, polo shirt, leather gloves, and his typical stance. (comment by John Lamm)

    He gave me one of my first jobs. Absolutely deserving of the 'legend' moniker. One of the greatest automotive photographers to press a shutter.

    Mas du Clos circuit. I really admired his photographic vista as a teen. He was really nice to me the one time we spoke and invited me to the R & T offices. I wish I would have been able to go. RIP Sir.
