• Regarding Janis, by Baron Wolman, photographer
  "In the late sixties Janis was still in her early twenties. She was a complex woman but in many respects still a young girl. I always tried to bring out that "little girl" side of her, tried to make her smile, tried to uncover the innocence that hovered just below the hard-driving singer superstar she was to become."
