Lovely post. Thanks for doing the work and putting this together Patrick. So interesting to see portraits of the same person by many different famous photogs. Appreciate your observations. Would appreciate more like this!

Thanks for this.

There’s a certain consistency in these images. Carter’s demeanor and bearing his “energy” is evident throughout.

Another great article. I loved seeing all these different „styles“ side by side. So interesting!

All interesting, but the Benson and Avedon (circa 2004) really jump out at me. As you noted, the Arnold Newman photo is interesting partly because it’s so dramatically different than most of his portraits.

Man, those 1970s colors are all over the place. Trying for color fidelity back then must have been lots of fun.

If someone does a NEW Profiles In Courage, he deserves MORE THAN ONE CHAPTER. Most Definitely.
