Excerpts from an interview with David Scherman conducted by Studs Terkel. Studs: David Scherman who's responsible for perhaps one of the most remarkable books in recent years dealing with photographs, capturing moments of history in our lives. It's "The Best of Life", and Dave Scherman had for years been a photographer for "Life" and then became the book editor. Dave, conceived this collection of all these photos and you, you were saying? David Scherman: Photojournalism was just waiting to burst out wide open all over the world around 1935 and 1936. And "Time" had experimented a lot with photojournalism. In America we hadn't really begun it yet, there was only "The New York Times" pictorial, midweek pictorial at the time, and we were anxious to get our entry off the ground. We experimented a time with photojournalism and in November 1936 we had bought the name of the old humor magazine, "Life", and we tagged it on the front of the thing and that's all we needed to. Excerpts (cont.) David Scherman: To me, photojournalism has to tell a story, and has to have some captions attached to it. And that's what, that I think is what we at "Life" pioneered from 1936 until we suspended publication in 1972. Studs Terkel: I was thinking of this remarkable photojournalist, perhaps one of the greatest photographers, of Margaret Bourke-White, of course. David Scherman: She was the first photographer on our staff. David Scherman -- And Eisenstaedt, of course. Studs Terkel: He was one of your photographers. David Scherman He was one of the early photographers. This picture he took of V-J Day in Times Square tells more about the happiness that we all felt at V-J Day than anything else. David Scherman: this marvelous picture of a sailor kissing a girl at the instant of V-J day on August 14th, 1945, and the funny thing about it is, that Eisenstaedt waited around until he could get a girl with a white dress on which would contrast with the black or dark uniform of the sailor. And Eisie tells me that he's had a lot of telephone calls and letters from many girls all over the country since, saying claiming that they were the one. Studs Terkel "The Moment Preserved", and just the very opening, the photograph, the frontispiece, the one is again Margaret Bourke-White. David Scherman: Well, that was the first picture that "Life" ever ran, Studs. It was the, it was the frontispiece of "Life" in November 23rd, 1936, and it's the first picture aptly, suitably, in this, in this book, and it's a picture of dancing girls, taxi dancers at a saloon near Fort Peck, Montana, which was a PWA or WPA project during the Depression to build this big mud dam, and Margaret Bourke-White went out and did the, did the pictures, and that was our first photographic essay. Studs Terkel: You, you worked with Margaret Bourke-White. David Scherman: She was looking for, she was looking for just what we were talking about, the moment, the way of preserving a moment, you know, on film. To get as much both aesthetically and historically in a single picture as she possibly could. Studs Terkel: Let me come to one part from the greatest of all photographers of our time, Cartier-Bresson. It was Cartier-Bresson, of course, who wrote a book called "The Exact Instant". "The Exact Instant"? His whole book is dedicated to the proposition of catching history at the exact instant on fi.
