He shot John during his legendary two-night Dodger Stadium series in October 1975, and, most recently, shot the portrait that appears on the cover of John’s new memoir,On Twitter, John paid tribute to O’Neill, writing, “Terry O’Neill took the most iconic photographs of me throughout the years, completely capturing my moods. He was brilliant, funny and I absolutely loved his company.
