I hung out with Joan Jett last weekend in New York! It had been 30 years since I saw Joan and it was such a cool meeting. We shot the shit about the seventies, The Runaways, Kim Fowley and life! All good stuff.
Hey, check out the cool website for The Runaways:
The X Mas party for Ron Herman on Friday evening inTokyo was amazing I am told. I can not be everywhere, but my friends Masayuki and Isao were there and told me that everyone had wonderful time. The L’Agence t shirts with my photos look like they are a hit in the Japanese market.
Thank you Eri Shikanai for the lovely photos!
Early Runaways photo on Hollywood Blvd! I think it was 1977.
Joan always carried this rather large switch blade with her. It was all for show of course!
This photo of Joan Jett was from a cool photo session that I did in 1977 on Hollywood Blvd. Our good friend Rodney Bingenheimer, the Mayor Of The Sunset Strip, showed up at the end of the shoot to hang out and and “do the dog”!
I just knew that when I made this cool photo of Joan Jett in her dumpy Tropicana Motel room in 1977 room that it would become memorable. I was all of about 17!
Joan Jett with a baseball bat at Flooky’s on Ventura Blvd in Sherman Oaks in 1977. Joan was great with a baseball bat. The Japanese loved this photo session!
