1009529 - Portrait by John Hedgecoe - Sir John Gielgud, actor, 1979 - this picture was taken during his first one-man show in London, a Shakespeare reading called The Ages of Man. As a new photographer, I was slightly in awe of famous actors and actresses. This photo was shot in the Queen's Theatre, which was being renovated at the time. The building was full of workmen and he had to be moved to a spot where there was sufficient light.
Sir Arthur John Gielgud OM, CH (14 April 1904 - 21 May 2000), known as Sir John Gielgud, was an English theatre and film actor, regarded by many as one of the greatest British actors in history.
