Jerry Schatzberg is an American photographer and film director born in 1927, celebrated for his influential fashion and portrait photography during the 1960s and 1970s. He gained acclaim working for Vogue, Esquire, and other major publications, creating iconic images of cultural figures including Bob Dylan, whose blurred portrait graced the cover of 'Blonde on Blonde.'
