Bill King (photographer)

William King (1939โ€“1987) was an American fashion photographer[1] known for the energy and sophistication he brought to his photographs.[2]

According to his ex-boyfriend, hairdresser Harry King, "He was kind, sweet, lovely, and a great photographer, but Bill did too many drugs and got off on people's misfortunes."[3]

He died of AIDS at the Beth Israel Hospital in New York in 1987.[1]
