Legendary lensman - IFBB World Report - Tony Lanza - Brief Article
Dean BrierlyBodybuilders come and bodybuilders go, but Tony Lanza, physique photographer extraordinaire, keeps snapping away. Tony has been recognized as one of the best photographic interpreters of the human form for decades, and his pictures of icons such as Steve Reeves have helped create a positive image of the sport in the eyes of the general public. Tony's background as a champion wrestler helped him establish a productive rapport with his famous subjects, and his experience as a sculptor contributed to his innovative imagery. This master of light and shadow recently celebrated his 83rd birthday, and he shows no signs of slowing down. FLEX salutes Lanza's unique contribution to the history of bodybuilding and wishes him many more productive years behind the camera.
