One of the world’s most renowned Photographers’ Agents joins the pod to share his preposterously eclectic life story. A creative raconteur, Guy was born in Surrey to a single mother from India. He charts his journey from childhood idyll, through working as a fruit seller, a personal dresser in the theatre (where he encountered the likes of Peter O’Toole, Shirley Bassey and the late John Hurt), and an assistant to a movie director before eventually emigrating to Australia, where initial skirmishes in the ad business led to him setting up the first photographers’ agency in the Eastern Hemisphere. His ‘light bulb’ life moments are characterized by him spotting opportunity in the most unlikely places and fearlessly grasping it with both hands. We also learn the importance of being your ‘authentic self’ by finding ‘the difference that makes the difference’ and not wasting time doing things that don’t serve your grander life goals.
