#215 SHOOTING HOOPS, A LIFE WITH LEGENDS
Guest Andrew D. Bernstein is a legend in American sports photography, involved in the creation of NBA Photos in 1986, responsible for helping archive the history of professional basketball. His photos have featured on thousands of magazine covers plus newspaper leads worldwide and his enduring professional and personal friendship with the late five time NBA Champion Kobe Bryant led to their global bestseller 'The Mamba Mentality: How I Play.' We talk about the game, the stars; Magic, Kobe, Phil Jackson and - Bruce Springsteen! Andrew is also host of the popular podcast Legends of Sport, sitting down with stars from all genres of sport to talk about their careers, lives away from the game, and everything else in between.
Patron of the Day today is Andrew Clark who featured in the February photo challenge for Patrons which was a self portrait with a strong practically ‘at the coalface’ quality to the photograph, a wonderful contrasty picture, beautifully lit, exceptionally intense. Join our Patrons today to help support the show and receive the two additional MORE episodes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Having now launched our private Facebook page too, we invite you to become a part of the show’s conversation daily.
We are proud to be supported also by MPB.com; the place to go if you want to buy, sell and trade quality used camera kit on line in the US, Europe and the UK. Quality used camera gear is a way of driving the circular economy and of course this makes it a sustainable way to shop too.
