The Effervescent Sophia Loren
Sophia Loren was only 17 years old when she made her film debut in Quo Vadis in 1951. She has since appeared in several projects. She was once asked if there were anything she would do differently if she could. She only said, “In a long, long career like I had—and by the way, I have—it’s very difficult to be able to criticize some of the moments that you do by yourself that you never tell to other people. It’s a very normal thing to do because you cannot every time have a big victory – no, there have been moments, maybe weak moments, where you did something that you are not really very happy about.”

Ernst Haas straddled the line between photojournalist and artist throughout his four-decade photography career. He infused artistry into his photographs of soldiers returning home after WWII. He captured the desperation and confusion in Europe at the time in a photo essay titled “Homecoming,” in which people searched for relatives among the survivors. It was a successful collection that assisted him in achieving even greater success. He turned them all down! “What I want is to stay free, so that I can carry out my ideas… I don’t think there are many editors who could give me the assignments I give myself,” he said.
