If she says so.
Those of you who are readers will especially appreciate this nice little feature from The Guardian , which matches interviews with centenarians by Sally Williams and portraits by David Bailey. Despite being the model for the photographer in Antonioni's Blowup, David Bailey has never been as famous here as he deserves to be. Here, the portraits and interviews, both nice enough alone, amplify each other. Bailey himself is still 24 years short of 100.
They've also go a feature of his "best" portraits, too. (We don't do enough on portraits around here.)
