Classic Art: John Lamm, Storyteller - Motor Trend

After proving to be "the worst managing editor in the history of Motor Trend magazine" [ his words—Ed . ], John Lamm reverted to writing and photography. After six years with MT , he made the switch to Road & Track , where he managed to hang on for 37 years. What you see here is a sampling from his files and a few from Motor Trend 's archives. From bad light to cars that overheat to equipment failures, photographing automobiles has its challenges. Overcoming the hassles and having kept the art director happy will color a photographer's opinion of what is his favorite work. Sometimes conquering the challenges involves hard work.
