The legendary artist Ricky Powell has taken some of the most memorable shots of the past four decades. His celebrity photographs captured the true essence of the larger than life personalities he highlighted. Ricky’s unique nature and mastery of his craft has allowed him to become an icon. “I classify myself as an individual—a lone wolf. I took pictures on the hangout tip. I got lucky. Taking pictures of people I admire was like collecting baseball cards for me. I did it for the love of it,” reflects Ricky on how he got his start.
