Apple Profiles: Mick Rock

"Mick Rock is a rock ‘n’ roll legend. In the business since 1969, the renowned photographer enjoyed unprecedented access to some of the biggest stars of the 1970s, including Syd Barrett, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, Queen and Blondie (all of whom he has done — or is doing — books with and about). These days, Rock is a fervent advocate of digital photography, and has installed Apple’s Aperture software at the heart of his digital workflow."

His latest project is an unflinchingly honest story about coming to terms with one’s family and oneself, a journey that is both funny and heartbreaking. The film stars Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Jack Black.

The man behind GoodFellas knows all too well how this story is going to play out:

"It's going to get a whole lot bigger than this ... you wait for the trial. This is going to be the tip of the iceberg. This guy Donaghy is in a lot of freakin' trouble...And I'll tell you, I wouldn't be surprised to see some players involved."

What Is the What

"What Is the What, written by Dave Eggers, is the novelized autobiography of Valentino Achak Deng, from his pre-war life in Marial Bai, to his resettlement in the United States. Separated from his family, Valentino becomes a refugee in war-ravaged southern Sudan. His travels bring him in contact with enemy soldiers, with liberation rebels, with hyenas and lions, with disease and starvation, and with deadly murahaleen (militias on horseback)—the same sort who currently terrorize Darfur.

"All of the proceeds from What Is the What will go to aiding the Sudanese in America and Sudan. Created and overseen by Valentino, the Foundation's first aim will be the rebuilding of his hometown of Marial Bai, in southern Sudan. Every purchase of the book constitutes a donation to The VAD Foundation..."
