Terry O'Neill(1938-2019)

To commemorate Paramount Pictures' 75th anniversary in 1987, O'Neill photographed what is arguably the most star-studded picture in history. Posed at the arched entrance to the studio were (Front Row): Martha Raye, Dana Andrews, Elizabeth Taylor, Frances Dee, Joel McCrea, Harry Dean Stanton, Harrison Ford, Jennifer Beals, Marlee Matlin, Danny DeVito; (Second Row) Olivia de Havilland, Kevin Costner, Cornel Wilde, Don Ameche, DeForest Kelley, Tom Cruise, Charlton Heston, Penny Marshall, Bob Hope, Victor Mature, Elizabeth McGovern, Robert De Niro; (Third Row): Andrew McCarthy, Henry Winkler, Anthony Perkins, Robert Stack, Mark Harmon, Faye Dunaway, Charles 'Buddy' Rogers, Gregory Peck, Debra Winger, Timothy Hutton; (Fourth Row): Jane Russell, Mike Connors, John Travolta, Janet Leigh, Charles Bronson, Ted Danson, Louis Gossett Jr., Ryan O'Neal, Rhonda Fleming, Leonard Nimoy; (Fifth Row): William Shatner, Peter Graves, Molly Ringwald, Dorothy Lamour, Olivia Newton-John, Cindy Williams, Matthew Broderick, Gene Hackman, Walter Matthau, Robin Williams; (Back Row): Ali MacGraw, Burt Lancaster, Scott Baio, Rhea Perlman, Bruce Dern, James Caan, Glenn Ford, Fred MacMurray, Shelley Long, James Stewart. This stellar two-page spread appears in O'Neill's compilation coffee-table book "Celebrity" (2003). [Cindy Williams is the only person in the group with her back to the camera; she appears to be talking to Glenn Ford who is standing behind her in the back row.].
