lee_shively Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 I was reading "Moving Out" last night and noticed Robert Frank's birthday is today. Since he's on my short list of most influential photographers of the 20th Century, I thought I would bring it to the attention of the Forum.

akochanowski Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Need you ask? Undoubtedly he's another "formless slob" untainted by grace and beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zora_suleman Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Thanks Lee, I love Robert Frank's work. I am currently studying for a photography A-level and am going to do something on Frank and his work. There are lots of resources on the internet, but if anyone has any information which I might find particularly useful or interesting, I would be very grateful if they would let me know. Cheers Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray . Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Think I'll tell everyone I see today it's Robert's birthday. I'm sure every last one of them will look at me like I'm crazy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray . Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 btw, If he's 79 he sure doesn't look it. In the photo someone posted of him a few months ago it looked as if he was in his 60's. I wish him health if he's reading this... (ha ha!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray . Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Andrew, do you think you could give him a call and see if we could arrange a print exchange with him?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beau 1664876222 Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 I once met him without knowing it was him. It was at a cocktail party and it was like, "Beau, meet Bob; Bob, meet Beau" and much later I mentioned his name and somebody said, "I introduced you to Bob, remember?" He did look kind of familiar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
