How race is lived in America: Relations of Gordon Parks and Gloria
Vanderbilt: I was just actually looking in my diary, and Gordon and I met in April of 1954, and he came to photograph me for Life magazine. I was making my debut on the stage that summer.
Parks: Then later, when you had your exhibition, I came to photograph you again.
