Yousuf Karsh is one of Canada's and the world's premiere portrait photographer of the rich and famous.  A 50 minute documentary was produced recently of which I will give one clip, I notice more clips on the side of this youtube, it is a good documentary:

Great stuff. I love it when Morley Safer asks the usual stupid question: something to the effect of "Are you trying to find your subject's inner person?" and Karsh says, "No, I'm just trying to get them to shut up so I can get on with my work." Now there's a photographer after my own heart.
