‘A few of the legends’: the 39-year journey to put a face to the world’s great photographers | Art and design | The Guardian

In 1982 Peter Adams finished a photography course in Australia. As the celebratory drinks flowed an idea materialised that would take him on a journey spanning 374,592km (he did the maths) around the world. The purpose of this grand endeavour was to photograph and interview some of the world’s best-known photographers. Thirty-nine years later the result is being bound at the printers in the form of a book that documents 300 of the world’s most prolific photographers
