About this person

While shooting album covers and magazine layouts for numerous groups - the Rolling Stones, the Mamas & the Papas, the Beach Boys, the Byrds, the Doors, Simon & Garfunkel among many others - he also photographed film legends like Rita Hayworth, Dean Martin, and Natalie Wood. As the primary celebrity photographer for dozens of magazines worldwide, Webster captured entertainers including Igor Stravinsky, Barbra Streisand, Jack Nicholson and American presidents Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton. Webster's work was collected in the award-winning book, Big Shots: The Photography of Guy Webster, published by Insight Editions. His passion for photography was matched by his love of Italian motorcycles; his personal collection of bikes considered among the world's finest. He spent the later part of his life in Ojai, California, where he volunteered and taught photography at the Oak Grove School. He died there on February 5, 2019, as a result of complications arising from diabetes and liver cancer.
