Gerald Fearnley photographed David Bowie miming in front of the camera in 1967. The negatives of Fearnley, whose younger brother Derek contributed to Bowie’s 1967 eponymous album, were published for the first time in 2016, after Bowie’s death.
David seemed very serious about what he was doing; he seemed trustworthy. He and my brother would often be in the kitchen writing. He used to play with the children, games of Monopoly or teach them how to play the penny whistle. David was great with the kids, very pleasant, always polite.
