More information
From 1960 until his death in 2019, Terry O'Neill portrayed countless film stars and Hollywood celebrities. His career as a photographer began at the British newspaper Daily Sketch. After a few years, he moved on to work as a freelance photographer for magazines such as Vogue, Rolling Stone, Time Magazine and Vanity Fair. With his natural and spontaneous manner, Terry O'Neill broke with the 1950s style of the time and quickly became popular. During the 1960s and 70s he was one of the world's most published photographers.
O'Neill has portrayed everyone from rock stars and politicians to royalty. With their personal and human character, O'Neill's portraits differ from the way his subjects are usually depicted. His approach to publication has always been: ‘I want my pictures to tell a story - not sell a story’.
Terry O'Neill was awarded the Royal Photographic Society's Medal of Honour in 2011 and was made a Commander of the British Empire (CBE) for his photographic achievements as recently as 2019.
