Are there any good books you've read about portrait photographers that were in hot demand and built their careers on 4x5 slide film in advertising, glamour/fashion, and celebrity coverage? I am looking for something that covers popular names, their lighting methods, the gear they were using, etc.
What about links to a documentary or video tutorial by a photographer working at that time? I'll share here if I find anything noteworthy.
I want to satisfy my curiosity because I came across a few sites that sell old slides while looking for examples of 5x7 Ektachrome. There's a lot of great work out there without a name attached or any copyright details whatsoever. Not all of the work was in a studio, either. I saw an examples out on location.
