DCist Interview: Danny Clinch
Danny Clinch‘s name is synonymous with rock photography. He has trained his camera on most of rock’s royalty — Dylan, Cash, Springsteen, Neil Young, Tom Waits, Willie Nelson, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Radiohead and many, many more — and come away with many of the artists’ most iconic images. His work has appeared all over the world in publications like Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, SPIN, The New Yorker and The New York Times, and Clinch is the official photographer for The Grammys and The Tibetan Freedom Concerts. And while his concert work is impressive, Clinch is best known for the incredible images he gets backstage and in the studio; Clinch has access that makes most other concert photographers (myself included) green with envy.
