I was in awe of Robert Frank. Here was the great master …. He picked up my camera once. I was terrified. He held it. It was like being with God. He said to me ‘You can’t get every picture.’ That was comforting advice. You do miss things. You’re attached to this machine. To its timing. Things are moving in front of you and you’re supposed to capture them, but it’s not always possible. Robert Frank didn’t seem to be missing anything, though. He was tireless. He never stopped working. »Annie Leibovitz, from At Work (2008).  Leibovitz met Frank while shooting The Rolling Stones on tour in 1972.  At the time, Frank was filming Cocksucker Blues, a documentary about the Stones that the band later blocked from release.
