I was living in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury and working as a photo-journalist in 1967 when a fortuitous meeting with Jann Wenner, the founder of Rolling Stone, resulted in my becoming the publication’s first chief photographer. From Issue Number One and for nearly three years thereafter, my photographs were published regularly in Rolling Stone and became the magazine’s graphic centerpiece. The collection of pictures and the stories behind them in “The Rolling Stone Years” cover some of the most significant artists and events of the period.
This Thursday, Rolling Stone magazine's first photographer Baron Wolman will be at Duncan Miller Project Space signing copies of his book. Check out his book site as well as his blog. Found a video where Baron talks of some of the performers he had photographed in those early years.
