EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Kent Gavin, we catch a glimpse of the legendary American singer Roy Orbison engrossed in a pile of letters dated March 1967. As he delicately sifts through the correspondence, it becomes evident that these are no ordinary letters - they are applications from people vying to become a nanny for his beloved son. Taken during the vibrant era of the 1960s, this image encapsulates both the personal and professional sides of Orbison's life. Known for his mesmerizing voice and timeless hits in pop and rock and roll music, here we witness an intimate moment where he takes on another role - that of a caring father seeking someone trustworthy to care for his child. The photograph exudes nostalgia as it transports us back to a time when handwritten letters were still prevalent, carrying with them hopes, dreams, and aspirations. Each letter represents an individual who believed they possessed the qualities necessary to nurture Orbison's son while allowing him to continue pursuing his musical career. Kent Gavin skillfully captures Orbison's contemplative expression as he carefully evaluates each applicant's words. The black-and-white composition adds depth and emotion to this candid scene, inviting viewers into Orbison's world beyond the spotlight. This remarkable snapshot serves as a testament not only to Roy Orbison's talent but also highlights his commitment as a devoted father amidst fame and success. It is an enduring reminder that even icons like him sought normalcy within their extraordinary lives.
