These Pictures: Photographs of John Lennon - Published 1985, William Morrow & Company By Bob Gruen with Foreword by Yoko Ono Bob Gruen became one of John and Yoko's favorite photographers because of his easy going style. Gruen started photographing them in 1971, became a trusted friend and to this day, remains friends with Yoko. The pictures in this book include some lesser-known scenes in the recording studio with Elephant's Memory, the famous New York City t-shirt and Statue of Liberty poses and Lennon family photos at the Dakota when Sean was just a baby. It's really amazing to see in one book how many of the very famous photos of John Lennon and of John and Yoko were taken by this one photographer.
