David Royston Bailey, CBE (born 2 January 1938) is an English fashion and portrait photographer.
Early life
David Bailey was born in LeytonstoneEast London, to Herbert Bailey, a tailor's cutter, and his wife, Sharon, a machinist. From the age of three he lived in East Ham.
Bailey developed a love of natural history, and this led him into photography. Suffering from undiagnosed dyslexia, he experienced problems at school. He attended a private school, Clark's College in Ilford, where he says they taught him less than the more basic council school. As well as dyslexia he also has the motor skill disorder dyspraxia (developmental coordination disorder).
In one school year, he claims he only attended 33 times. He left school on his fifteenth birthday, to become a copy boy at the Fleet Street offices of the Yorkshire Post. He raced through a series of dead end jobs, before his call up for National Service in 1956, serving with the Royal Air Force in Singapore in 1957. The appropriation of his trumpet forced him to consider other creative outlets, and he bought a Rolleiflex camera.
In 1996 he returned to New Zealand, playing again for the Waitakere City Raiders in the Lion Red Cup. He was part of the side that lost the 1996 Grand Final, although he did score a try in that match.
David Bailey (born 9 September 1944) is a retired English cricketer. He started his career in Minor Counties cricket with Durham, making his senior debut in 1961. Four years later Bailey joined Lancashire, and went on to play 27 first-class matches for the county. He achieved his highest first-class score of 136 in the match against Kent in July 1969. Bailey returned to Minor Counties cricket when he moved to Cheshire in 1973. He stayed with the county for 11 years, and was appointed captain for three seasons from 1974 to 1976.
"It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter, because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the ordinary."
"A positive attitude can really make dreams come true - it did for me."
"Rockers are the nicest people to photograph. They have no inhibitions."
"It is a sign of a dull nature to occupy oneself deeply in matters that concern the body; for instance, to be over much occupied about exercise, about eating and drinking, about easing oneself, about sexual intercourse."
"My fashion pictures are documents just as much as my boat people or my pictures for Band-Aid of Sudan."
"I never cared for fashion much, amusing little seams and witty little pleats: it was the girls I liked."
"When I die I want to go to Vogue."
"This is going to be a good place for kids like him to learn the ropes. And there's going to be a lot of them out here."
"People keep trying to wring more uses out of the old form factors, the old PCs. I'm somewhat skeptical about their ability to really drive into new markets at this point, ... A lot of these ideas have been around for a long time. IBM had a tablet PC, the Word Pad, out several years ago with limited success, and a lot of people are working on better ways of connecting businesses and consumers to business. I think they've demonstrated some really strong uses, but they're more evolutionary than revolutionary, at this point."
"Compaq is making incremental steps to improve its business line. But they really have several hurdles going forward."
"It's only a few nutcases who do art for themselves, like Van Gogh."
She blew into this old one horse town Like something we ain't never seen And old Bill hired her at the Sundown Grill She tied that apron 'round her jeans I started hanging out there every night Just to hear her talk and laugh I couldn't help but fall in love with her I should've known it wouldn't last She always talked about Mexico I never thought that she would really go I felt my love could make her settle down I guess I know better now She's probably living down there by the sea I wonder if she ever thinks of me One morning she was gone like the wind She won't be back this way again Old Bill could tell that I was missing her As he poured me a drink Said, "If you put a wild bird in a cage You'll break its will to sing" If that's true then she's better off Still out there wild and free So I bought straight tequila all around Said,"Boy, here's to her memory" She always talked about Mexico I never thought that she would really go I felt my love could make her settle down I guess I know better now She's probably living down there by the sea I wonder if she ever thinks of me One morning she was gone like the wind She won't be back this way again She won't be back this way again She won't be back this way again
