5. Bob Willoughby, whose photographs have transformed the images of
Hollywood's biggest stars, is a true pioneer of 20th century photography. He
was the first "outside" photographer hired by the major studios to create
photographs for the magazines, and was the link between the filmmakers
and major magazines of the time, such as Life and Look.
He was responsible for a number of technical innovations, including the silent
blimp for 35mm still cameras, which became common on film sets. He was
the only photographer working on films at the time to use radio-controlled
cameras, allowing him unprecedented coverage in otherwise impossible
situations, and he had special brackets built to hold his still cameras on or
over the Panavision cameras.
