Bowman

Chris Bowman had a knack for capturing drama before the spotlight hit the stage, he spent years photographing actors backstage, their powdered faces half-lit in the gloom of gas lamps. One shot of Guy Little mid-prep shows him adjusting his collar, the mirror’s edge cutting across his face like a prompter’s line. If you’ve ever peered behind the velvet rope of a theater, his photos feel like the warm-up act you weren’t meant to see.
Look up Guy Little Theatrical Photograph and you’ll spot why every actor’s dressing room should have his prints.
