Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2016 Format: Prime Video Verified Purchase Fantastic look into the life of Mr. Cunningham. It gave a perspective that I hadn't even considered. I loved how it actually made Mr. Cunningham vulnerable through his introspection [which he allowed to be shown]. His dedication to capturing the raw / unfettered beauty of fashion [or as he puts it, 'personal style'] is so refreshing and makes me respect the dedication to his craft all the more. It amazes me how highly respected he has remained in the industry since the 60s (I mean, being besties w/ Brooke Astor?!?!? AMAZING!!!! ). I have always been curious about his 'chosen uniform' - being such a lover of fashion and yet his explanation made total sense to me (highly respect that). Ever the utilitarian, his resolve to getting everywhere in NYC via his bicycle (29 variations, I believe he said), even though it has been stolen time & time again, makes one respect his drive and resolve to remain a 'free spirit' w/o all the trappings the fashion industry has repeatedly offered to him on a silver platter. This man truly LOVES what he does and I highly respect that. Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2019 Format: Prime Video Verified Purchase Wildly interesting and heart warming doc. Bill was a treasure and what humanity he had. I could relate to him in so many ways, which is such a surprise. "That's them and it's so interesting, but it's not necessarily my thing. " His interest in fashion was so much more than superficial. He was so layered. The ability to interest oneself in what others do certainly makes one interesting. At once opinionated and yet open-hearted, that's Bill. And so humble. He loved his work and wouldn't be owned, nor told what to do. What a life lived! Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2017 Format: DVD Verified Purchase I found this a stunning, deeply thought-provoking, and inspiring documentary. One of the best I have ever seen in my life, and I watch a lot of documentaries. That is because the subject matter of the film, Bill Cunningham, was such a supreme person and artist, that watching him is seeing a piece of art walking around--or biking around and taking photographs, as the case might be. I hesitated before watching this, thinking it might be stuffy and pretentious fashion stuff, or that it would be boring "artsy fartsy" stuff. I could not have been more wrong. This is a powerful and beautiful documentary that will be ESPECIALLY meaningful to you if you have the following interests: 1) extraordinary people 2) fashion 3) New York 4) art and, 5) a life well-lived. Bravo to the creators of this masterpiece. And Bravo to St. Bill Cunningham! Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2016 Format: Prime Video Verified Purchase This documentary gives those of us outside of New York City a small glimpse into the world of fashion through the eyes of a well known and favored photographer to some of New York's most well known icons. To hear in an interview from Anna Wintour how her admiration of Bill Cunningham overflows exemplifies his influence and acceptance into the fashion world. Learning about his philosophy of never accepting even a glass of water when he attends events to photograph the fashion reminds you of how to truly follow your passion and gives meaning to Bill's motto of not accepting money but rather his love of what he does provides him with such pleasure. Getting to know a sliver of who this man was is heartwarming and his genuine passion and love of what he does is incredibly inspiring. Well done and uplifting this documentary will warm your heart. He is funny too. We should all be so lucky to know someone even close to this type of man. Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2016 Format: Prime Video Verified Purchase One of the most beautifully directed and edited documentaries about any individual. The deeply private, intensely committed subject brought honor and taste to the world of popular fashion and dethroned some of the press moguls that had stultified the field. What a wonderful man and what a superb documentary study if what one individual can accomplish in an utterly crazy world. One of the finest non-fiction films I have ever seen. Bravo, Bill! Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2012 Format: DVD Verified Purchase If you love good documentaries on the fashion industry - The September Issue and Valentino: The Last Emperor for example - you'll love 'Bill Cunningham New York. ' But even if fashion doesn't interest you, if you love New York City - either as resident or frequent visitor - you'll love BCNY. And, even if you don't think or care much about NYC, you'll be fascinated by this insider's look at this one-of-a-kind, impassably dedicated, deceptively complex man. How this film from Richard Press didn't get an Academy Award nomination is beyond me. [Oh, right: Harvey Weinstein didn't back it. ] For dedicated readers of the New York Times, there's the thrill of finding out what goes into compiling and editing Cunningham's iconic "On the Street" pictorial montage each week. A few viewers might find that look into the editing process tedious. But I suspect most will find it fascinating. We see Mr. Cunningham pick a theme and then work through the week at assembling his vision with John Kurdewan, a production artist and layout editor for the Times. I loved the film's focus on the work and relationship between these two: Kurdewan's technical chops (and extraordinary patience, good a bit of mock exasperation! ) together with Mr. Cunningham's artistic vision (and trademark doggedness - into his 80s now, he still obsesses over the finest detail). If there's a single word to sum up Mr. Cunningham, it is "unimpeachable. " We see this characteristic most clearly demonstrated in his approach to his other signature column: Evening Hours. He is pounded with hordes of invitations. He flips through a stack on his desk. Yet, he only picks the events that he deems worthy. Throughout his entire career, he's never taken a single cent (other than his Times salary) to cover these events. It's plainer than that: he's never taken so much as a sip of water at these events. This isn't a casual decision. Mr. Cunningham makes it clear that in taking this line, he maintains his freedom. At his most serious, he intones, "Never take the money. " Riveting stuff. My favorite scene among many: Cunningham in Paris attempting to get into an important show. Were you not to know the man, you'd probably have the reaction that the gatekeeper does: Cunningham continually flashes his pass, continually gets overlooked. He never pulls rank. He never pulls the "Do you know who I am? " card. Throughout, Press keeps his camera trained at a distance. Cunningham is either unaware or doesn't care. Finally, another person affiliated with the show intervenes, pushes the clueless security personnel away with these words: "Please, he's the most important man in the world. " That Cunningham is indeed that man (in this world) and remains his singular, ascetic self makes this the most fascinating of tales. I'm so glad that Richard Press captured the story before Cunningham's unique career comes to a close. Top international reviews 4. 0 out of 5 stars Fascinating but tinged with Sadness Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 28, 2015 Verified Purchase This is about the unusual and devoted New York fashion photographer Bill Cunningham. Bill is a small elderly man (now 86) who carries a Nikon film camera round his neck. He rides his push bike through the streets of New York before chaining it to a lamp-post, this is because he's had 27 stolen! Bill has a good eye and starts taking photographs of street fashion for New York publications. In the evenings he cycles to glittering charity events and takes photographs of the fashion and people he finds inspiring. Bill tells us he is not interested in celebrities with their "free dresses". We see that Bill is a private and reserved man whose only interest is in recording the evolving fashion trends. He lives a very frugal life in a tiny apartment with no private kitchen or bathroom, in Carnegie Hall. His apartment has little furniture but is full of filing cabinets holding all of his many films with hundreds of books on fashion tucked into every nook and cranny. Bill appears to know everybody who's anybody in New York and also international fashion. He goes to Paris for Fashion Week and waits patiently outside one of the shows with his invitation and all the other photographers. Someone rushes out of the building and leads him in saying, "this is the most important person in the world" Bill gets seated in the front row but he will only photograph the clothes that are interesting to him, clothes that he feels real people could wear. Bill’s been around a long time, and really he’s seen it all before. Designers beware and take note. The film has cameo appearances from the New York Glitterati and some wonderfully eccentric fellow residents of Carnegie Hall. Towards the end of the film Bill is asked about his private life, he touches on the subject of homosexuality. He talks about his family’s expectations of him and you get the impression this has given him a strict code for life that has lead to the life he now lives alone. Bill is also a religious man, a man who goes to church every Sunday. When asked about this Bill cannot speak, he puts his head down trying with all his resolve to control his emotions. Once he is composed he tells us only that religion is important in his life. Ultimately fashion has been his life and only true love. A fascinating film, but it left me filled with sadness for a life emotionally half lived... 5 people found this helpful Sending feedback... Thank you for your feedback.

He is one of major tellers of NY Fashion glamour, but he lives like an outsider, an alien who doesn't stop and always keeps on snapping. You see a forgotten spirit of conceiving photography, art and fashion as something alive, and it shows you the best side of NY. A must have documentary even if you are not a fashion (or photography) addicted. You will fall in love with this guy 2 people found this helpful 5. 0 out of 5 stars Poetry in Motion Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 20, 2012 Verified Purchase This is an absolute gem about the life, times and photography of New York photographer, Bill Cunningham. Cycling around the Big Apple in all sorts of weather, Bill Cunningham has lovingly documented the fads and fashions of the city and the "beautiful people" who inhabit that space over more than 50 years. Bill's story is wonderfully captured and it is a wonderful story. What will particularly strike you is his complete lack of interest in money and the finer things of life. He is a loving and very lovable man. Do your mind and body a favour: buy this dvd, watch it and then share with as many people as you can. You will feel all the better for it. I was really pleased to learn so much about this private man and... Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 15, 2016 Verified Purchase This is largely about Bill rather than his work but he is so devoted to what he does that we see a lot of behind the scenes material and a lot of his photography. I was really pleased to learn so much about this private man and this includes comments from Anna Wintour and Iris Apfel. One person found this helpful Even if you are not a fan of fashion this... Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 12, 2014 Verified Purchase Even if you are not a fan of fashion this is worth seeing just for the sight of the elderly Cunningham passionately going about his business of taking photographs of New Yorkers for a national newspaper. This dvd is an affectionate look at someone who evidently loves his job and cares about the people he photographs. Bill is a one you like photography, watch this! Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 4, 2012 Verified Purchase I always watch Bill's 'On the street" weekly report and was looking forward to seeing this film. The film shows Bill's passion for fashion and his lack of interest in the modern culture of celebrity. I wanted to know the real Bill, and the film delves into his past, including his stint in the Military and his family. Bill's use of the words 'child' and 'kid' made me laugh and you can't but wonder who will carry on Bill's column when he leaves us. Bill's flatmates are truly one offs and they are a key part of this documentary. Bill was riding his 27th bike when this was made - he's probably on his 30th now! DW 4 people found this helpful Lovely documentary about a very cunning photographer Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 29, 2013 Verified Purchase Inner circles in the fashion-world consider Bill Cunningham an icon; in many ways he is a walking encyclopaedia, what he knows about fashion isn't worth knowing. On top of that he's curious and a charming personality. Here one certainly gets "all" of him.

An interesting insight into the fashion business. Report abuse.

E ven those of us who used to await and savor Bill Cunningham’s street-fashion photochronicle every week in the New York Times —where his work appeared from 1978 to 2016—probably had no idea how precious, in time, those photographs would come to be. Cunningham had two beats: society parties and, better yet, the polychrome cavalcade of fashion as seen on the streets of Paris and, most frequently, New York. His “On the Street” column, which featured candid pictures of individuals arranged into themes—men and women all wearing yellow coats, for example—was an anthropological study in the making. In Mark Bozek’s marvelously intimate documentary The Times of Bill Cunningham, Cunningham himself says—in an on-camera interview Bozek conducted in 1994—that he was hardly a photographer at all. He considered himself a “fashion historian. ” Cunningham was easily both, and Bozek’s film—narrated by Sarah Jessica Parker—captures both his artistry and his fizzy, elfin charm. You might wonder why we need another Cunningham documentary. Didn’t Richard Press’ superb 2010 Bill Cunningham: New York cover it all? Bozek’s film is a more personalized work, with that 1994 interview as its backbone. It’s something of a companion piece to Cunningham’s delightful memoir, Fashion Climbing, published posthumously in 2018. (Cunningham died in 2016, at age 87, though you could catch him wheeling through the streets of New York on his bicycle almost until the end. ) Cunningham tells some of the same stories in Bozek’s film, but it’s wonderful to see and hear them tumble forth, punctuated by an impetuous grin here or an animated cackle there. Cunningham was born in Boston and moved to New York as a teenager to work at the ultra-elegant Bonwit Teller department store. In time he began designing hats under the name William J. (he didn’t want to use his full name, lest he embarrass his discreet Bostonian family), eventually opening his own studio, though he had to work as a janitor in the building to make that happen. His hats were inventive and fanciful, concoctions that might feature octopus arms pretzeled flirtatiously around the wearer’s eyes, or mini-fountains of feathery plumage. (They were worn by socialites, but also by Joan Crawford, Ginger Rogers and Marilyn Monroe. ) He did a stint in the Army during the Korean War, and later worked as a fashion columnist for Women’s Wear Daily. But when the great fashion illustrator and bon vivant Antonio Lopez gave him a camera as a gift, in 1967, instructing him to use it as he would a notebook, Cunningham found his most joyful means of self-expression, taking pleasure daily in capturing the way men and women around him used clothes to write their own mini-autobiographies. Bozek includes examples of Cunningham’s thrilling on-the-street work—club kids swaggering around in 1980s big-shouldered jackets, socialites swaddled in cashmere as they pick their way around New York City’s humbling, egalitarian puddles—and makes a lively dash through Cunningham’s life and career. He suffered a serious bicycle accident in 1993 (though that hardly stopped him from hopping on again, once he’d recovered from his bruises and broken collar bone). In 2008, the French Ministry of Culture awarded him he Legion of Honor for his longtime coverage of Paris fashion. Bozek’s interviews capture Cunningham’s crackling joyousness, but occasionally his subject will stop, mid-sentence, and look down, shielding himself from the camera. Cunningham’s embrace of the world was warm and rapturous, but his sensitivity and shyness was part of that, too. The AIDS epidemic, and its decimation of the New York artistic community, hit him particularly hard. Bozek’s film includes a story even devoted Cunningham lovers may not know: When Lopez became ill and had no insurance for treatment, Cunningham, who notoriously led a rather monastic, nonmaterialistic life, bought a painting from him for $130, 000—and then returned it so the artist could sell it again. All lives are made of shadow and light, and The Times of Bill Cunningham acknowledges that. But through it all, spending time in Cunningham’s presence is bliss. At one point Bozek, who is always off-camera, asks his subject, “What’s the hardest thing? ” “Spelling! ” Cunningham answers, without even having to think about it. And he flashes that broad, guileless smile, knowing, probably, that putting letters in the correct order on a page could fail any of us in the face of great everyday beauty.

“It’s not work, it’s pleasure, ” Bill Cunningham said a few years ago. “That’s why I feel so guilty. Everybody else does work — I have too much fun. ” That was typical of the man, one of the greatest and most distinctive fashion journalists of the past 50 years. Cunningham, the longtime New York Times photographer, died over the weekend at the age of 87. Cunningham had suffered a stroke in his apartment on Central Park South about two weeks ago, and was hospitalized. Beloved in fashion circles, Cunningham, who is best known for his candid and street-style photography, was a fixture at fashion shows and on the streets of New York where he was often seen riding his bicycle to events. On early mornings, Cunningham, who habitually sported a blue button-down smock, would be spotted snapping photos of fashion-forward passersby on Fifth Avenue near Bergdorf Goodman. His passing was immediately felt in the fashion community. Before his men’s show began in Paris Sunday night, Thom Browne spoke on the PA system and said: “Good evening everyone. Before we start, I thought it would be appropriate to observe a moment of silence for the incomparable Bill Cunningham. ” Backstage after the show, Browne told WWD: “He was the original…I think he meant so much to people who didn’t even realize. It’s not just that he was around for so long, he was just the pure version of what is going on today in reverse to people just taking pictures on the streets and bloggers and all of that. He just cared about being behind the camera, not becoming the celebrity himself, which made him even more of a celebrity. ” Although Cunningham’s status had grown in nonfashion circles, following the release of the 2011 documentary “Bill Cunningham New York, ” the photographer generally eschewed the spotlight, preferring to be “invisible, ” as he told WWD in 2008 during a retrospective of his work. That year, Cunningham had been honored with France’s L’Ordre National des Arts et des Lettres in Paris where he teared up and spoke about his career and love of fashion, offering: “I’m not interested in celebrities with their free dresses. Look at the clothes, the cut, the silhouette, the color. It’s the clothes. Not the celebrity and not the spectacle. ” Rick Owens was among designers including Sonia Rykiel and Gareth Pugh who attended Cunningham’s Legion of Honor ceremony. “I remember tearing up when he spoke about his primary purpose being the pursuit of beauty in a trembling cracking voice, ” he recalled. “And then when Jean-Luce Huré, his French equivalent, embraced him with them both in tears. …Well, I am tearing up right now, just thinking about it. ” “He was very popular, just as much in Paris as in New York. He was very modest. He didn’t always have the best seat [at fashion shows], but was always in a great mood. He loved fashion in an incredible way until the end. He jumped for joy after a show he liked, ” said Didier Grumbach, then president of the Fédération Française de la Couture, du Prêt-à-Porter des Couturiers et des Créateurs de Mode, who awarded Cunningham the French legion of honor. It’s Grumbach who asked the French culture ministry to make Cunningham a knight of the Legion of Honor. “He did a lot for Paris. He attended the first Christian Dior show in 1947; he saw the beginning of Yves Saint Laurent, the beginning of ready-to-wear. He was a witness like almost no other. ” In an industry characterized by extravagance, status and largess of oversize egos, Cunningham, who chronicled the fashion industry for The Times since the late Seventies, was something of an anomaly for his singular, almost monastic focus on the clothing, not the personalities. Karl Lagerfeld remarked on that and Cunningham, the man. “Poor Bill. He was such a mysterious person, ” he said. “I met him with Antonio Lopez and Juan Ramos around 1970; I had always the feeling they were his closest friends. Everybody liked him but he was not into social life and had no other close friends. No dinners, nothing. He appeared and disappeared after he had done his job. Not many people knew where and how he lived; he was an extremely discreet person. His presence will be missed. What will happen to his incredible archive? ” Readers of The Times experienced that passion in Cunningham’s columns “Evening Hours” and “On the Street, ” which included the photographer’s audio commentary. Born on March 13, 1929 in Boston, Cunningham came to New York after dropping out of Harvard University at the age of 19. He got his start at Bonwit’s in the advertising department, but soon began designing hats under his label “William J. ” His business, which was located on 52nd between Madison and Park, folded when he was drafted during the Korean War, and served a tour in the U. S. Army. Cunningham, who was the first journalist in America to write about Azzedine Alaïa and Jean Paul Gaultier, began his journalism career working for WWD under John B. Fairchild, who had just returned from Paris to New York, and later The Chicago Tribune before joining The Times. His first big break came when he took a chance photo of Greta Garbo, who wore a plain nutria coat that had a silhouette that caught his eye. Cunningham confessed he didn’t notice who he was photographing, but his editors at The Times did. He showed his editor Arthur Gelb a trove of similar photos he had snapped, which Cunningham said in a 2002 piece for The Times called “Bill on Bill” included “Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, the king and queen of Spain and a Kennedy in a fox coat. ” Cornelia Guest, daughter of C. Z. Guest, recalled her first encounter with Cunningham. “I was a little girl and I met him for the first time with my mother, ” she told WWD. “We were coming out of FAO Schwartz and he took our picture. I have known him all my life. He was always ‘Mr. Cunningham’ and he always called me ‘child. ’ He was a true gentleman and he made the world a better place. ” In a 2002 article, “The Picture Subjects Talk Back, ” by Cathy Horyn, Gelb called the photographs a “turning point” for Cunningham. “It gave him recognition beyond fashion, ” Gelb said. “And his street photography was a breakthrough for The Times, because it was the first time the paper had run pictures of well-known people without getting their permission. The Times had always been prissy about that. ” In 1978, Cunningham published “Facades, ” a collection of 128 photographs of Editta Sherman in front of well-known Manhattan buildings. Years later, in 2008, he received the L’Ordre National des Arts et des Letters and in 2012 he received the Carnegie Hall Medal of Excellence. “He had such an eye, ” said Carine Roitfeld. “He paved the way for other photographers. We all dreamt to be featured on his page in The New York Times. It was the page to be on. ” Roitfeld recalled the photos Cunningham took of her wearing an Azzedine Alaïa coat in the snow during New York Fashion Week. “They were magnificent, ” she said. “He called me ‘my child. ’ ‘How are you, my child? ’ When you’re a grandmother, it’s nice to be called ‘my child. ’ He was maybe the only person in the fashion world that everyone — without exception — liked. He’ll be greatly missed. ” Street style photographers outside the Lanvin men’s show in Paris on Sunday morning in Paris expressed their sadness about Cunningham’s death. Adam Katz Sinding, whose Le 21ème blog counts 446, 000 Instagram followers, said: “I got to spend a day in New York with him at the Cloisters. I was on a train with my ex-girlfriend and he was there. We walked with him the whole day, and he was telling us about the Rockefeller parties that he used to shoot there. Everything that I said to him, I had to repeat two or three times because he couldn’t hear. But it was very cool [to get to spend the day with him]…I knew who he was at the time I started this [street style photography]. He created the whole thing. There’s no question. ” “He was wonderful, always smiling, curious about everything, passionate and so humble! ” said Sarah Andelman, creative director and purchasing manager of Colette, who also praised his “unique eye and incredible sense of observation. ” “I asked him to do an exhibition. He would always politely answer yes, but clearly he didn’t want to be in the spotlight, ” she continued. She said she always thought that he should do a book of his photography. “When the documentary [‘Bill Cunningham New York’] came out, I saw that everything was organized and archived […] I hope that there will be a book and that the next generations will know his extraordinary work, ” said Andelman. “There’s no one else like Bill, ” said Tommy Ton, the Canadian photographer behind the Jak & Jil blog. “In January, it was pouring rain. The fact that he was willing to stand in the rain while all of us were taking refuge, I thought it was remarkable. Nothing would ever stop Bill. So when I started seeing less of Bill, I was concerned. When the news came, it was very shattering. “I don’t even know if this new generation of photographers even knows the imprint of Bill’s work, ” Ton continued. “He loved clothes, that’s what mattered. It wasn’t about if someone was a celebrity or what they were wearing. He was interested in telling a story with his pictures. He saw things that no one else could see. ” “He was a cultural anthropologist: The fact that he was willing to stand in the cold or ride his bike, the numerous times I heard he was injured – he once was hit by a truck, or car rolled over his face, ” said Ton. “What was his famous quote? ‘Money is cheap, freedom is the most expensive luxury. '” The French fashion and society photographer Jean-Luc Huré called Cunningham an “extraordinary” man, “a little ascetic. ” “He paid for his flights and photo labs to keep his freedom, ” said longtime friend, Huré. “He had an ethic that we shared. He was making no compromises. He was discreet and shy. ” Huré recalled having lunch with Cunningham, and fans would come to take photos with him. “His face would become very red, and he was very embarrassed. He would tell them that I was the real photographer and therefore that I was the one to shoot, ” said Huré. “When he lived in his pocket-sized apartment in Carnegie Hall, he slept on a cot with boxes of negatives underneath and everywhere – in the bath, in the fridge. ” “He didn’t come to Paris during the last two seasons, because of his eyes. His surgeon told him — rightly – not to fly. But I was hoping to see him in October, ” he said. A desk attendant in Cunningham’s new building — where he moved after Carnegie Hall — remembered Cunningham fondly. “I used to put eye drops in his eyes, right here in the lobby! ” he said. “Bill didn’t care. ” Others chimed in that they were surprised when people would visit the building to ask if Bill Cunningham lived there. “Him? ” joked one attendant, who remembered a time when Renée Zellweger inhabited the building years earlier. “Renée, I would understand. ” But building staff began reading about Cunningham and some even watched the documentary. Soon, like others in the building, they realized Cunningham was special. They talked about how he’d always wheel his large bike in the lobby, and sometimes sport a tuxedo for late-night occasions; how he could “get into any fancy party, ” and how he’d “just chain up” his bike out front before walking in. Above all, they spoke about what a sweet person Cunningham was and how two of his close friends, who moved from the Carnegie apartments to the new building, had recently passed away, which was a tough blow for him. “He was so humble, ” said the doorman, who found Cunningham in his apartment unresponsive on a Monday. It was believed that Cunningham suffered a stroke on a Saturday night, and concerned neighbors alerted the building when the photographer’s door was left ajar over the weekend. At The New York Times, where Cunningham spent his days, publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. offered: “Bill was an extraordinary person with an incredible talent not just for fashion photography but for life. His company was sought after by the fashion world’s rich and powerful yet he remained one of the kindest, most gentle and humble people I have ever met. We have lost a legend and I am personally heartbroken to have lost a friend. ” Executive editor Dean Baquet praised Cunningham’s work ethic and approach to his job, adding: “He was a hugely ethical journalist. And he was incredibly open-minded about fashion. To see a Bill Cunningham street spread was to see all of New York. Young people. Brown people. People who spent fortunes on fashion and people who just had a strut and knew how to put an outfit together out of what they had and what they found. ” Director of photography Michele McNally, who worked closely with Cunningham, said: “Bill was an extraordinary man, his commitment and passion unparalleled, his gentleness and humility inspirational. Even though his talents were very well-known, he preferred to be anonymous, something unachievable for such a superstar. I will miss him every day. ” Despite all the accolades and the minor-celebrity status that he has garnered, Cunningham never let any of it get to his head – just the opposite. “I’m a zero. I’m a worker in the factory, ” he told WWD in 2014, following his conversation with Fern Mallis. “I’m like you and everybody else. I’m still enjoying what I do. ” According to a spokeswoman from The Times, Cunningham’s funeral will be private and by invitation only. Cunningham’s family specifically requested no flowers. Condolences may be sent to his family via the following address: The New York Times c/o Anne Reid, 4th floor, Photo Desk, 620 Eighth Avenue, NY, NY 10018.
