“Happy family gives you a brick-by-brick foundation that you build on for the rest of your life. And then it teaches you so many things that are important in your life, like being a good sport, and not thinking negatively, and always having a good feeling for your fellow man. We went to wonderful schools. We just had a great life and I'm ever grateful for it.” ThinkingMenGivingImportantFeelingsSchoolSportsTeachWonderfulGratefulHappy Family Author:Polly Allen Mellen
“I think movies also played a part in my interest in fashion. I've also always been hooked on the movies. From my early teens on, I always had my favorite movie stars who I admired, like Carole Lombard and Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich, and the men in my life who I loved, like Gary Cooper.” ThinkingMenInterestFashionHe ManMy FavoriteMovie StarGary Author:Polly Allen Mellen
“I thought Fred Astaire was the most chic man. I loved the way he dressed. Never mind his dancing, which was beyond - he was just so elegant and had this freedom of body.” MenMindDancing Author:Polly Allen Mellen
“Steven Meisel is completely consumed with what interests him. He does what he wants to do, and when something doesn't interest him, he's not afraid to say so. I think that's why you don't see his work all over the place as often as you might like to. Today he only photographs what he wants to photograph, what turns him on. He has an extraordinary eye, and his sophistication is limitless. This is a man who doesn't miss a beat.” ThinkingMenEyeTodayInterestMissingExtraordinaryPhotographNot AfraidLimitlessSophistication Author:Polly Allen Mellen
