Kenya! Gentlemen;s Quarterly April 1968 Photography/Design: Horn/Griner
In 1984, Pratt Institute bestowed its prestigious Alumni Achievement Award upon three people. Two were successful business and engineering executives. The third has sold more soft drinks, automobiles, beer, lipstick, luggage, computers, telephones, gasoline, insurance, airline tickets, motor scooters and sneakers than anyone in the history of television advertising: Steve Horn
In 1957, freelance designer John Berg invited Steve Horn and another graphic designer, Norm Griner, to his engagement party. A friendship was struck and two years later, they formed Horn/Griner, a partnership that lasted fifteen years.
In the beginning, Horn/Griner was strictly a graphic design firm; shooting an occasional photo for a client's ad or record jacket. John Berg, just beginning his long association with Columbia Records, supplied them with most of their design assignments. It wasn't until 1961 that Steve Horn's rather uneventful design career changed instantly with the click of a Hasselblad. Steve shot a double-page spread for I. Miller ladies shoes. The moment it hit the newsstands in Vogue, Steve Horn began his career as a professional photographer.
From 1962 to 1964, Steve made several extended trips to Europe on assignment for Elle and various other high-fashion magazines. While there, Horn noticed an increasing number of photographers using a wide-angle twenty-millimeter lens. Realizing its great visual potential in haute-couture photography, Steve became the first still cameraman to bring this trend to the United States. His work subsequently received rave reviews.
Throughout this period, Horn/Griner became the most sought-after tandem in the business. Art Directors Club Archive - Hall of Fame http://www.adcglobal.org/archive/hof/1987

A nomadic people, the Masai build their manyattas - a group of thorn-bush enclosed low huts of brush and cow dung - wherever the land is rich for grazing, then move on to greener fields. The emerald hills and blue skies of Maisailand - where giraffes, lions and other game are seen, hunted and photographed - provide a splendid background for sport shirts sporting the hot new pink and rose shades.

The Masai are a proud. dignified warrior people who no longer need fight: they now peacefully tend livestock, control the licensing of their vast hunting lands and largely ignore Westernization.

Centuries ago, when water was scarce, the custom of drinking blood - mixed with cow's milk - was adopted. The practice is still followed. The animal is not killed: instead, a leather thong is tied around the cow's neck, causing the jugular vein to bulge out. Then, with one Masai holding the animal, another gently shoots an arrow into the vein. When the arrow is pulled out, the blood flows into a gourd held under the vein: dirt placed on the wound stops the bleeding.

Massai children, in addition to having their two front lower teeth pulled (in case of lockjaw they still will be able to ingest food,) must also endure having their earlobes slit: wooden blocks are then inserted or heavy decorations hung from the lobes in order to stretch them.
