Know what's odd? They don't make 'Life' magazine anymore. Nope. Just special editions. "Life - 100 Photographs". "Life - In Hollywood". "Life - Mobsters and Gangsters". That kind of stuff.
I never realized that they stopped being a monthly magazine until just recently. They shut it down in 1999. Did you know that? Sucks, too. I used to love that mag. And I would like to have it back.
Any of you got any pull with the Life magazine people? Could you let 'em know that Buzz wants his "Life" back?
Wait, that doesn't sound right.
Life died and was ressurected once before. I think the very fact you hadn't noticed it was gone for almost 4 years sort of points out WHY it died, don'tcha think?

Posted by: The Fugitive at November 5, 2003 09:14 PMI remember when it went from the big mag it used to be to a regular sized mag... I was irritated then. I think it's a shame, but people want sensationalism... just not sensational photography. Man, they had some great pics.
And awesome Hepburn cover there. :)

Posted by: theresa at November 6, 2003 06:04 AMLife was all about the photography and I can't think of a professional photographer today that doesn't lament it's passing. It was a great magazine but they didn't use, whats the word, Iki used it oh, sensationalism and that is what sells now days.
Posted by: Jeff A at November 6, 2003 09:30 AMI guess I was never really into it to notice that it was gone. Like you I kept seeing the tag in magazine racks, but didn't realize they were just special editions.

Love Katherine. Love her.
