MICHAEL LAVINE


Yep, I pretty much do everything on this project. If you are wondering how I got to this point, here is my bio:

Esteemed rock photographer Michael Lavine, renowned for his iconic portraits of musicians such Kurt Cobain, Notorious B.I.G, and David Bowie, has been making his own brand of visually unique images of celebrities for over 30 years.

In 1996 Simon & Schuster published “Noise from the Underground” a book of Michael’s photographs of bands; including Nirvana, Sonic Youth, and Soundgarden, In 2009, Abrams published “GRUNGE” a book of Michael’s photographs documenting the Seattle punk scene of the 80’s. His latest portrait project, SWAN SONG, was a series of vibrant portraits of female singers based in Brooklyn.

Michael has written and directed several dramatic short films. His short WEEKEND AWAY (starring Sophia Takal) played at numerous festivals.
