Terry O’Neill CBE is one of the world’s most collected photographers with work hanging in national art galleries and private collections worldwide. From presidents to pop stars, he photographed the front-line of fame for over six decades until his death in 2019.
O’Neill began his career at the birth of the 1960s. While other photographers concentrated on earthquakes, wars and politics, O’Neill realized that youth culture was a breaking news story on a global scale and began chronicling the emerging faces of film, fashion, and music who would go on to define the Swinging Sixties. By 1965, he was being commissioned by the biggest magazines and newspapers in the world.
No other photographer has embraced the spectrum of fame in such detail, capturing the icons of our age from Winston Churchill to Nelson Mandela, from Frank Sinatra and Elvis to Amy Winehouse, from Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot to Nicole Kidman, as well as every James Bond from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig. He photographed The Beatles and The Rolling Stones when they were still struggling young bands in 1963, pioneered backstage reportage photography with David Bowie, Elton John, Eric Clapton and Chuck Berry, and his images have adorned historic rock albums, movie posters, and international magazine covers.
An outtake from O'Neill's legendary 1977 photoshoot with Faye Dunaway at the pool at the Beverly Hills Hotel the morning after winning the Oscar for Best Actress for the film "Network" is on view at our New York gallery through August 26th as part of "Terry O'Neill: Greatest Hits."
