Such An Insult

By Jim Dempsey

 

Berkeley's Paul Bishop, nationally famous photographer with studios on Durant Ave., has shot (on order) a long list of very prominent persons, ranging from former President Eisenhower¹ on down. Just recently he was commissioned to do portraits of both Dean Acheson and his wife. Paul was justly proud of the beautiful portraits and put them in the window of his studio. Recently he ran across a local businessman whom he knew and the man commented that he had noticed the Acheson portraits in Bishop's front window when he walked by one day. Then he asked --- in all sincerity --- if Paul had "copied the picture out of some magazine just to try to impress people."

    ^1. This is not necessarily true, unless he photographed General Eisenhower during World War II (g. Paul Bishop, Jr. note).
