"The image with the bodyguards and the handlers illustrates the relationship the best. Frank was not somebody you got close to, and Terry was able to take some pictures, but I can't say that they're intimate. They feel standoffish. They feel distant. Whereas, with the other ones, he got in real close. But they are a wonderful view into a time."
(Fotografiska chair Yoram Roth, Interview Magazine, 6 June 2023)
