Alfred Hitchcock


April 1, 1976: Alfred Hitchcock in his suite at the St. Regis Hotel in New York. “After knighthood,” the caption read, quoting Hitchcock, ” ‘all that was left was to await death, a few vodkas hastening its advent.’ ” A note on the back of the photograph clarified who was directing the photo shoot: “The picture showing Mr. Hitchcock creeping his way through the plant in his room was his idea.” Hitchcock died the following year.
