"Bill Cunningham lived like a monk: His bed was a piece of plywood with a mattress that sat atop file boxes filled with photos and negatives."



What they left out is the studio/apartment he lived in was one the studios that use to exist on top of Carnegee Hall.

Both the documentary about him and the documentary Lost Bohemia are well worth watching.

Apparently he used a Nikon DSLR in his later years, according to this article. But before that he used a manual focus film SLR, a FM2 Nikon. So, I like him 🙂
