His work there caused interest in the fashion world and he went on to become one of the world’s most famous fashion photographers through the unique techniques he developed. The serious injury he received on that occasion caused him to rethink his career, so he took up back-stage photography instead, which allowed him to remain involved with the music industry. His playing career, it might be said, was short circuited when, during a concert, he took hold of a live microphone stand and was nearly electrocuted. “Pyramid”, a band he had jointly set up with another musician, made a hit record in 1967. During that period he took up playing the guitar and subsequently, having been asked to play as a stand-in lead guitar in a band, decided to give up graphic design and become a full-time guitar player. Hope to see some familiar industry leading folks soon.Martin Hopton has written to me about his school friend Steve Hiett who died last year.Īfter leaving school Steve studied graphic design at Worthing Art College, Brighton College of Art, and the Royal College of Art.
