Mission Accepted Podcast: Capturing the Moments with Dee Lippingwell
It all started in the 1970’s with Dee Lippingwell’s LOVE of Pink Floyd and her desire to photographically record their concert for her own personal enjoyment. Turns out she had a knack for capturing that “je ne sais quoi” that every artist wants to portray, and every club owner wants to sell. She went on to shoot practically every Rock and Roll legend from the 70’s to the millennium using the required “first 3 songs and no flash” stipulation. Despite the excellence of her work, she was still a female photographer in a male dominated world. She had to get creative to help navigate the thin times, and her resourcefulness and sheer skill carried her to the top of her profession. She shares the thrill of seeing images emerge in her dark room … the music she had felt inside transcended to a photograph … as well as a few stories from the other side of the curtain. This show is a must watch, and Dee is a national treasure to be acknowledged and enjoyed!
