RIP #rexreed. A few years ago I had the great opportunity of photographing Rex at his 1700’s farmhouse in Roxbury,Connecticut as part of a collection I am putting together.
It was said he could be a Brutal Critic,which is true however I found him to be utterly charming. The syndicated entertainment columnist of them all he was also the author of several books, one of which “Do You Sleep in The Nude” I devoured as a boy.
An erudite,witty and amusing raconteur he had stories about EVERYONE the afternoon we did our photo sitting. From Bette Davis , Angela Lansbury (who had her own room and key to his home in Connecticut),Sue Mengers (who threw parties for him in the 70s),Gloria Vanderbilt,who’s painting adorned one of his walls and who’s crocheting filled a staircase! And so many more.
And who could forget his turn as “Myron Breckinridge” in the camp classic MYRA BRECKINRIDGE starring alongside Raquel Welch and Mae West?!
Rex-You were a delight to spend a few hours with and will not soon be forgotten! The last of the Hollywood Golden Age film critics and columnists🙏🙏

A few months ago I was commissioned by the prestigious #washingtonlawyermagazine to do a photo sitting of #justiceanthonykennedy for the cover and accompanying insert photos. Justice Kennedy served in The Supreme Court of The United States under six Presidents. I consider this photo sitting to be one of the highlights of my career and Justice Kennedy is the consummate gentleman to spend a few hours with!
