Daido Moriyama and Eikoh Hosoe in the latter’s studio, 1973. From Black Sun: The Eyes of Four, by Mark Holborn: When [Daido Moriyama] arrived at the offices of Vivo [in the early 60s], [Shomei] Tomatsu explained that he was too late, Vivo was over. However, [Eikoh] Hosoe responded intuitively to the young Moriyama and offered him work as his assistant. Hosoe, another superb craftsman, became his teacher. Moriyama often stayed the night at the old Vivo offices, which Tomatsu and Hosoe maintained. Occasionally he would stealthily examine Tomatsu’s files of contact sheets and become so excited he couldn’t sleep. -- source link
