In the biography of Cecil B. DeMille, written by Scott Eyman, on page 461, Rock Brynner said of his father "By the time my father worked with DeMille, he'd studied photography...he knew the craft..." and a photo is included in the book of DeMille and Brynner on the set of The Ten Commandments showing Brynner with his camera. His photographs of Deborah Kerr are beautiful and indeed show his skill. Thank you for post these photos.
Stephen O’Donnell is a mid-career fine artist, writer, and singer/performer. His paintings are widely collected, both in this country and abroad. Entirely self-taught, he is perhaps best known for his self-portraits, work which most often exemplifies the portrait historié - in which a recognizable subject is portrayed in period costume or mythological guise, to dramatic or comic effect - as well as his small paintings of animals. His premier collection of short fiction, Half-Light, appeared in July of 2023. His work – both literary and visual – has appeared in the literary magazines/journals Nailed, Menacing Hedge, Buckmxn Journal, and Gertrude. He is married to writer and graphic designer Gigi Little, with whom he sometimes performs. Their book, The Untold Gaze – a collection of Stephen’s paintings paired with short fiction by thirty-three authors – was published in October of 2018. They live in Portland, Oregon.

The UNTOLD GAZE is a large format fine art book - 11x11 inches hardbound, 160 pages, full color - a collection of almost ninety of Stephen's paintings paired with short fiction and poetry inspired by his work.
