Los Angeles photographer Greg Gorman has recently picked out more than 125 of his favorite shots including some of Michael Jackson from 1987 with a tarantula on his face, that has been showcased in the exhibit "GREG GORMAN: A Distinct Vision 1970-2010" and that will remain on display at the Decorative Center Houston until June 3rd 2011. Gorman also talked about his experience working with Michael.

“Michael was a perfectionist beyond your wildest imagination”, Gorman said. “Every time we would shoot, he would call me and we’d have a two-hour conversation to discuss what it was we were going to do and how we were going to go about it".

He had pet tarantulas; they actually shed their skin. This is the casing of the tarantula that he brought with him”.

Gorman went on to say, “He never traveled with a big entourage. He was very genuine and really loved photography. I dearly miss him. He was a tragic individual but an amazing human being”.
