photography by heidi brill Credentials: Over the past 60-plus years, Chicago icon Victor Skrebneski has photographed everyone from Andy Warhol and Bette Davis to Orson Welles, Iman, and Cindy Crawford. His work has appeared in Harper's Bazaar, Town & Country, Maison & Jardin, Interview, and Vogue Italia, to name a few. Behind the story: "Cindy Crawford ['Meaningful Beauty,' page 108] came to my studio when she was 16 and wanted to be a model. She took my directions perfectly and learned quickly—I also insisted that she never remove her beauty mark, as it made her unique." Favorite spot in Chicago: "My studio. I am passionate about my pictures and completely aware of the privilege of being able to work as a photographer. All of my pictures have interconnections between art history and biography, style, emotions, and quality. I will always be the seeker extending the language of the medium." His inspiration: "Getting up in the morning." VICTOR SKREBNESKI photographer ...wIThOuT whOm this issue would not have been possible Photo: Maureen Schulman. Makeup: Orlando Barsallo.
