"The Polaroid Book"

At his studio he preserves his finest images. "At the end of my shoots we cut up the 665 prints and paste them in books. We've got 20 years of every major star and my assistants in different locations," he says. The stars come and go in popularity, but his trusted assistants stick around. Two of his assistants have been with White fifteen years, seamlessly teaming together to create superb images.

A bi-coastal commuter, White hops from New York to Los Angeles regularly. His hobby is car collecting, and he's now got 25 hot rods in his huge warehouse of a toy box. He's also a regular flea market enthusiast and has gathered up seven old Polaroid cameras over time. He pays between 50-cents and $5.00 for each. His prize treasure, costing $2.00, a Polaroid Model 180 Land camera, still takes Polaroid 655 film. He brought it to a camera shop in New York to be cleaned and the store owner immediately offered him $500.00. He will not part with it for any price and uses it every day.

Harrison Ford
"I've known Harrison for 20 years and I've been photographing him for that long. He wrote the foreward for my book and he's a good friend of mine. This was taken out at his property in Wyoming and it was during his movie 'What Lies Beneath' which is probably the first time in his career that he played a bad guy. That was his motivation. He grabbed a kid's teddy bear and we asked him what he was doing. He said to please let him do his own thing. He said I'm a bad guy and let me show it."

Richard Gere
"This is at his home in Westchester, New York on a winter's evening. He has this beautifully constructed Buddhist prayer shrine in his backyard. This photo is special because it was very personal for him and he practices the religion."
