A shy Michael all over Tatum O’ Neal at some Beverly HIlls party in 1979. I think I only saw a couple of more times after I took this photo. I have not seen Tatum in decades. I totally missed her at The Runaways party.
Someone just asked for another Michael Jackson photograph. This was taken at a Beverly HIlls bank for a Jacksons gold record party in the late 70’s. I remember the sun coming up when I left this bash.
People magazine called me today to give me the good news that they are publishing my 1982 photo of Farrah Fawcett, Ryan, Tatum and Griffin O’Neal in their new issue. I would love to make a print of this and give it to Ryan.
Belinda Carlisle from the Go Go’s is gonna die when she sees this vintage photograph of her back stage at the American Music Award with Tatum O’Neal back in the late seventies. Did the hairstyle Belinda! Do you see Tim Hutton in the background?
My pal Michael Jackson and Tatum O’Neal dance the night away at his gold record party in Beverly Hills. These were epic times for me. I had hardly any competition and I got to photograph some real icons. Of yeah, my photos were sold to magazines all over the world. It’s a different world today.
Michael Jackson told me more than once that my hair was “cool”! He wanted to know how I worked my blow dryer. He was really a very sweet soul.

Tatum O’Neal appears to be fascinated with my rap at this party. This was the party where she spent the evening dancing with Michael Jackson inside a bank vault in Beverly Hills. How I miss those parties with Michael Jackson singing and dancing inside a bank vault!
