Celebrities, their pets photographed for new book
11-03-2009
Most celebrities aren't known for being happy to share the limelight. Except, it seems, when it comes to showing off their pets.
"People ask me, 'How were you able to get people to do this?'" says Dallas Morning News photographer David Woo, co-author of Top Dogs and Their Pets (Parapet Press, $29.95). "It surprised me, too. But it wasn't about them. It was about their pet."
Woo, along with former News photographer Richard Michael Pruitt, got 91 people, from musicians to models to ex-presidents, to pose with their dogs, cats, snakes and birds for the project. A portion of the book's sales, and all the money raised from the sale of photographic prints, will benefit animal-related charities.
Stars from across the country volunteered; radio host Diane Rehm wrote the introduction. But the collection has a definite Texas flavor, and some of the state's best-known faces – and their friends – are shown here. Because you don't have to be famous to appreciate the bond humans have with their animals.
