199214829JNew York: Interview Inc May 1992. Laid in is a Typed Letter Signed from Richard Avedon to model & actress Brooke Shields dated April 22 1992 thanking her for Shield’s birthday tribute on page 72 of this magazine. Written on Avedon’s printed stationery “Dear Brooke in Avedon’s hand What a wonderful tribute to us in Interview by you and so beautifully written. then again in Avedon’s hand Really Thanks Dick.†The handwritten parts are very large and flamboyantly written. Both Shields and Avedon shared the month of May for their birthdays. Shield writes in the magazine with side by side portraits of them in part “.One of my best birthday parties was at Richard Avedon’s studio. I wish I had the Polariods. It was just Ariella the makeup artist Polly Mellen and Avedon - the group I grew up with. I could smell the Chinese food from the dressing room: chicken and pine nuts crispy shrimp with sugarcoated walnuts. I came out in a robe with a full face of make-up and there were the usual big blue seltzer bottles with silver pumps on the table and lots of nuts and raisins. And then they surprised me with a cake and champagne. It was really fun like a true birthday party. However I was underage so it was “just one sip for you.’ Twenty minutes later Dick was saying ‘Allright fun is over. Back to work.†When Dick walks into a room with his hair like Einstein’s and plays with his glasses a lot of people are intimidated. And he doesn’t like it if anybody else is around or speaking. But when he works he is so creative so sensitive. He hides behind the camera. It almost becomes a dance. There is a mutual vulnerability and a moment of fusion when he clicks the shutter. You either get it or you don’t.†Interview Inc unknown books
