Welcome to EPICRELICS
THIS sale IS FOR THE 2 1/4\" VINTAGE 1969 COLOR TRANSPARENCY OF THE ABOVE SHOWN BEAUTIFUL MODEL. PHOTOGRAPHER IS KEITH BERNARD. WITH ORIGINAL KEITH BERNARD STICKER ON IT.
HERE IS A BIO ON KEITH BERNARD.
Keith \"Bernard\" was born and raised near Lake Taneycomo in Missouri and developed an appreciation for beauty early in life. While in high school he began working as a traveling commercial photographer for R.H. Overton Company during his summer vacations. He traveled through 46 states plus Canada and Mexico. He had originally been intent on becoming a civil engineer, but his photographic work won out and he eventually quit school to become a photographer. He moved to Portland Oregon and became manager of the photo studio in the Meier and Frank department store. After 5 years he opened his own studio in Bellingham, Washington and then moved to Seattle to purchase that city\'s leading studio (Grady Studio). He expanded this into a small chain that was quite successful until he tired of it.\"I suppose Hollywood was always alluring to me\", he said.\"One day I decided to sell everything and go to California - which I did, quite on the spur of the moment.\"For one year, he took a break from photography and lived in Malibu before gaining employment with Bruno Bernard\'s Palm Springs studio. When Bruno decided to sell all of his California studios a few years later, Keith was left with the Hollywood studio and the rights to call himself Bernard of Hollywood. To appear more authentic, he changed his last name to Bernard, as mentioned above.
While Bruno thought he needed to get away from Hollywood to concentrate on nude glamour and magazine photography, Keith was able to gain success in the same field while operating the very same Hollywood studio. Keith shot pin-ups and glamour nudes for many of the mens magazines of the era, including Modern Man and Rogue, as well as being featured inseveral Figure Annuals of the 50s and 60s. He was one of the photographers who worked with popular figure modelDiane Webber, and some of his other models included Donna Noble,Jayne Mansfield, Judy Bamber, June McCall, Phyllis Ursin, Dane Arden (Elsa Sorenson), Iris Bristol, Ziva Rodanne, Joy Reynolds andBetty Brosmer. Keith had quickly signed Betty Brosmer to a contract that gave him exclusive rights to shoot pin-ups of her. She was by far his most popular magazine cover girl, and between 1955 and \'57, he sold over 200 covers of her. In addition, Keith\'s photos of Betty appeared in almost every top quality mens magazine, including Rogue, Modern Man, Cabaret and Fling. If you ever see a pin-up of Betty Brosmer, it was more than likely shot by Keith Bernard.
Although Keith never photographed a centerfold forPlayboymagazine, he did contribute two of his photos ofJayne Mansfieldto the Nov. 1957 pictorial entitledLoren vs. Mansfield.
For his studio workin the 1950s, Keith used a 5x7 view camera with a portrait lens, and for outdoor work, he used two cameras - a 4x5 Speed Graphic and a Rolleiflex. He admitted to being a little slow in switching to the medium format Rollei, but he came to use it as much or more than the 4x5. By the 60s, he was using the Rolleiflex for B&W work and a Hasselblad for his limited outdoor color work.
In 1963, Keith Bernard was quoted as saying\"I enjoy my work and expect to continue at it for a number of years to come. If others enjoy it, then I am happy and proud. That is enough success for me.\"
If any readers have information on Keith Bernard\'s photography from the mid 60s and beyond, please let me know.Update #2:One ofKeith\'s grandchildren, Keith W. Davis (Keith W. Davis Photography) tells me that Keith Bernard\'s full birth name was Marion Keith Davis. He was born on July 25, 1911 in Ozark, Missouri and died on April 8, 1981 in Los Angeles. Keith had been married at least three times, and was known to have had four children, a son and a daughter from both his first and third unions (David Keith Davis and Mary Kathryn Davis by his first wife and Keith David Davis and Leslie Davis from his third marriage. Both sons are now deceased).
