Some, despite their fame, don’t feel entirely comfortable being photographed. No character, no lines: what to do? I get it — they’re actors, not models. On the other hand, former child star Jane Withers, photographed at the Riverside Museum for Life Magazine with only PART of her vast collection of Hollywood memorabilia, was joyful and energetic from start to finish — and this was a shoot that began in the late afternoon and ended after dawn the following day! Every element in the picture had to be moved from other rooms in the museum to a central location and re-staged for the camera. (Jane helped!)
