Well-known
The Snapshots series (10: P.M., Mondays). It's airing on the Knowledge Network here in B.C., but I believe the current show can also be watched online - for those of you who do not live in Lotus Land.
Not an interview, just a good 30 minutes spent with a single photographer, talking about what they do and why, with lots of examples of their work.
Tonight it was Fred Herzog, a street-photographer who started out in the late '40's, and has been working exclusively in colour since the '50's.
Some points I found interesting: He's a street photographer working in colour. He also worked without any kind of recognition as an artist (wasn't seeking any) until he was in his '70's - but it never slowed him down any. I also got a kick out of his gear. His street camera of choice appears to be a white plastic Canon Sure-Shot.
Very highly recommended. Next week it'll be Lincoln Clarkes.
