Judy Garland on the set of 'A Star is Born'

Portrait of Judy Garland on the set of 'A Star is Born' by Bob Willoughby, 1954. This shoot provided Willoughby with his first cover of Life magazine in 1954.

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?'.
