To me, pictures are like blintzes - ya gotta get 'em while they're hot.

If I had a picture of two handcuffed criminals being booked, I would cut the picture in half and get five bucks for each.

I had so many unsold murder pictures lying around my room...I felt as if I were renting out a wing of the City Morgue.

Hollywood is Newark, New Jersey with palm trees.

There are photographic fanatics, just as there are religious fanatics. They buy a so-called candid camera there is no such thing: it’s the photographer who has to be candid, not the camera.

It's been a strange [summer].... I was sent by a magazine to photograph famous photographers.... Of course, I included myself.

I am a perfectionist. When I take a picture...it's gotta be good.
