Jim Morris and Jan Gilbert
That's Jim Morris at left with Jan Gilbert in a photo
similar to one I posted of them several years ago.
Forbidden fruit. The mere suggestion of interracial relations was daring of Lon at that time, especially of a black man and a white man posing nude together. Wonder how Lon’s clients in the Deep South and parts of the Mid-West responded….:)

Just has he didn't flinch when it came to photographing men of color, Lon didn't hesitate to show them with white meh.
DeleteIt's a beautiful photo, and I'm glad that Lon had the courage to ESCHEW the ethos of '50s American society!
DeleteWay ahead of his time when it came to smashing barriers.
