Reply to comment by jonnyinternet in Hello, I am Chris Buck, a New York-based portrait photographer. Ask me anything about the photo world, art careers, and working with the famous. I have photographed four Presidents, Jay-Z, and Grumpy Cat. by chris_buck

For clarity sake, the four Presidents I did sittings with are G.H.W. Bush (41), George W. Bush (43), Barack Obama (44), and Donald Trump (45).

Presidents generally have more influence than strictly cultural figures. Only the future can tell, but my guess is that Trump will be the most historically relevant figure of these subjects of mine.

Obama is important as the first Black President, but Trump is so outside the box of who ends up in the White House, this could be a marker what the presidency looks like going forward.

I'm just realizing now that this was probably a joke question.

No it wasn't! Lol

My mind was wondering about important figures ie the presidents as opposed to cultural ones. Jay z to an extent but more so grumpy cat

Thanks for your answer
