Lotti Golden wasn’t about to miss her big chance. At the age of 17, while still a senior at Canarsie High School in Brooklyn, she’d landed a staff songwriting job with Saturday Music, a song publisher in midtown Manhattan. But Golden had bigger ambitions. So, when her boss, Bob Crewe, stepped into a crowded elevator with her one day at work, she knew she had to pitch him on making a record.

“I had never met him before. I’d never seen him around the office. He was elusive,...

“Sophie and the Baron,” documentary short co-produced by Courteney Cox, follows the unlikely friendship between two artists who crossed paths at a chance meeting. And the road to the film was just as organic. One of the 15 films on the Oscar shortlist, “Sophie and the Baron” follows up-and-coming artist Sophie Kipner as she reinterprets iconic photographs taken by Baron Wolman, “Rolling Stone’s” first chief photographer, using blind contouring, in which she draws without looking at the page. The short is directed by her cousin, Alexandria Jackson, who one day just started filming the pair, who had met when Wolman ordered a vodka tonic from Kipner at a London bar.

“There was no plan of anything like this. How could you even plan any of this that would soon happen?” Kipner tells Gold Derby (watch above). “When we all started hanging out,...

Director Alexandria Jackson has a background in photo journalism, so her cousin Sophie Kipner thought she should meet Baron Wolman, the man behind some of the most famous photos in the history of Rolling Stone magazine. Kipner is an artist, and at the time she was reinterpreting some of Wolman’s iconic images. “I fell in love with their dynamic,” Jackson remembers. “The two of them were so charming and wonderful together that I just started filming as she started to reinterpret the first piece.” And thus “Sophie and the Baron” was born. The film made the Oscars shortlist for Best Documentary Short, and Jackson joined us for our short-film directors panel. Watch our exclusive video interview above.

“Sophie and the Baron” is the collision of not two, but three different art forms: Wolman’s photos and Kipner’s blind contour drawings, both filtered through Jackson’s filmmaking. “I think...

Sophie & the Baron tells the story of the unlikely friendship between iconic Rolling Stone magazine photographer Baron Wolman and artist Sophie Kipner, which blossomed as the former’s career was winding down, and the latter’s was just beginning.

The clip opens with the late photographer, who died last year at 83, tracing Rolling Stone‘s history back to San Francisco in 1967.

“Anything was possible,” he tells the camera. “We had no limitation. We had no marching orders. We could do anything… nobody was covering the musicians, the fans, the music, and we were right in the midst of massive social...

Sophie Kipner was working as a bartender in London when she first met Baron Wolman. Kipner, an artist and writer, made Wolman a gin and tonic. As the two began chatting, Kipner learned exactly who her customer was: Rolling Stone‘s first chief photographer, who captured Sixties icons like Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix, and documented Woodstock in 1969. “I couldn’t believe he was the guy who took all these photos that I’ve been drooling over for so long,” she says.

Kipner was working on a novel at the time,...

A month before Woodstock 50 was announced, the festival was already in deep trouble. Last December, Michael Lang, the co-founder of the original 1969 event who had become its bemused-hippie symbol in subsequent decades, was in talks with an upstate New York racetrack for a fest that would mark the anniversary of the historic, if chaotic, cultural milestone he had overseen. The new festival would take place August 16th – 18th, 2019, almost exactly 50 years after the original Woodstock.

Lang had begun negotiations with the international media company Dentsu Aegis to finance the event,...

Baron Wolman has a lot to say about the recent cancellation of Woodstock 50. “The whole thing is insane,” the rock photographer says. “An event of that magnitude has to be planned well in advance. Not just a month in advance, not just six months in advance, but probably two years in advance. To get the permits and the space and to really think through what you’re going to have to deal with when thousands of people show up. It’s definitely not just about the performers.”

If anyone would know,...

Baron Wolman was beginning his career as a photojournalist in San Francisco when he got a call from Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner in 1967. “He said, ‘We’re starting this magazine,'” recalls Wolman. “‘We’re going to need a photographer. Do you want to be the photographer?’ I had no idea what I was doing.”

Wolman became Rolling Stone’s first chief photographer, capturing legendary artists like Janis Joplin, the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, the Who, and many others during his three years on the job. “When I took them,...
