Rock Hudson on location for 'A Farwell to Arms'

Portrait of Rock Hudson on location in Grado, Italy shooting 'A Farewell to Arms', by Bob Willoughby, 1957.

Bob Willoughby apprenticed with a number of Hollywood photographers including Wallace Seawell, Paul Hesse, and Glenn Embree, gleaning technical and business know-how. His career took off in 1954 when Warner Bros. asked him to photograph Judy Garland’s final scene on the set of 'A Star Is Born'. As the first “special” he covered the making of over 100 films, including movies 'The Graduate', 'My Fair Lady', 'Rosemary’s Baby' and 'Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?'.
