DANNY CLINCH & FRANK STEFANKO
Stefanko and Clinch were behind the lens of some of the most intimate and iconic portraits of Springsteen from his seminal 1978 album Darkness on the Edge of Town to his 16th studio album released in 2009 Working on a Dream.
Sharing common roots and an appreciation for the grit and beauty of ordinary, working class life, Stefanko and Clinch worked with Springsteen to create the visual narrative that illuminates the mood and poetry of his music and albums over the past 30 years.
“Frank always shot your internal life. He let your external imperfections show. His photos had a purity and poetry....
"Bruce lives through every part of what he produces, whether it's his own lyrics and music or the graphics and text designed for his album or CD."
– Frank Stefanko
