The iconic logo of the lady holding the torch that you currently see at the beginning of every Columbia Pictures movie was born in the apartment of Pulitzer Prize-winning New Orleans photographer Kathy Anderson in 1991.

The final version is a painting, but few people know that it was based on a photo of the photographer’s colleague, captured during a portrait shoot in a small space using very simple props.

“During the shoot, Jenny asked if she could sit down for a minute,” says the photographer. “I shot one frame of her seated, which may be my favorite image from the shoot. But after chatting for a minute, she confided that she was pregnant. After congratulating her, we resumed shooting, but I was worried about her standing on the box.”

In today’s Logos That Have Legends Behind Them dep’t: the story of the lady who posed for the current restatement/repainting of the Columbia Pictures logo. The photographer was Kathy Anderson: the painter was Michael Deas.

...In the second photo: Columbia has a bit of a sit-down between takes. (Several interviews I came across this morning tell how the model, Jenny Joseph, let the photographer and painter know she was pregnant at the time, and needed a few minutes off mid-shoot to re-gather her resources...)

...I love the lightbulb. :)
