The Bond: People and Their Animals
By Roger A. Caras and Shel Secunda
The story behind the creation of the Simon and Schusters' book, The Bond: People and their Animals starts in the hustle and bustle of New York City where for over 20 years Shel Secunda had been working as an advertising and celebrity photographer with his own studio. His photographs appeared on the covers of Life, Ladies' Home Journal, and TV Guide.
Shel Secunda & Anka
Shel began photographing people with animals, more and more. As he says, 'I got to the point where I would be cranky if an animal wasn't to be in the picture.' Then it happened, the moment that would change the rest of his life. Shel posed his jet black German Shepherd with a baby, and when this beast yawned, Shel's camera caught it. That portrait went on to be selected for the permanent collection of the International Center of Photography in New York. Shel soon realized he wanted to photograph more animals. So he and his wife, successful writer Victoria Secunda, moved to Ridgefield, Connecticut--where Shel turned the huge basement of his new house into an office, studio, and dark room. Soon after Shel got the idea of doing a book of famous people and their pets, he called Roger Caras, President of the ASPCA, whom he knew slightly and with whom he shared his ideas. Roger and Shel went looking for a publisher and when Simon and Schuster came along ... well the rest, as they say, is history.
