Eileen at the children’s barber shop. Upper East Side. NYC. Paul Goldfinger photo ©
This photo requires some background information. It’s Eileen’s Upper East Side look–somewhere on Madison Avenue— 87 th Street perhaps. I am not allowed to say the date, but it was a time when there was a special barber shop (“Michael’s”) just for “small fry.” It was Stephen’s first haircut, and I did photograph him on that landmark day, but this shot belonged to Eileen. She was busy making sure that his bangs were just perfect. —-PG
