Robert Capa - the rare 1947 radio interview
Robert Capa - the rare 1947 radio interview
This radio interview is the only recording that we have of his voice. In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Robert Capa on October 22, 1913 in Budapest, ICP is excited to share a recent discovery of a long lost recording of a his only known radio interview. "Bob Capa Tells of Photographic Experiences Abroad" was broadcast on October 20, 1947 on the 8:30 am morning radio show "Hi! Jinx." The interview was part of the press relations surrounding the publication of Slightly Out of Focus, his autobiographical novel chronicling his adventures during World War II published by Henry Holt and Company that year. "Hi! Jinx" was a national program on NBC radio that was created in 1946 by Jinx Falkenburg and Tex McCrary. The husband and wife team were pioneers of what became to be called the talk show format. They eventually had two radio programs, a five-day-a week television program and a syndicated column in the New York Herald Tribune. Falkenburg was a model and had been photographed by Capa in December 1940 following one of her performances in Al Jolson's musical Hold On to Your Hat. McCrary was a journalist and as an Army Air Corps colonel had led the first journalists into the ruins of Hiroshima. Previous attempts to locate this in national radio archives were unsuccessful. None had recordings of this specific show. The recording showed up recently on eBay from a seller in Western Massachusetts, who had discovered the recording and others several years ago in the area from an estate sale. The record is a 33 1/3 rpm microgroove recording made by Associated Recording Services, an archival recording service. This recording is the only known recording of Robert Capa. While he gave other public talks, this was the only radio interview and he was never interviewed on television. Only scant newsreel films show him in action, and none with his voice. He appeared in a few Hollywood productions but was cast as a mute Arab. His first language was Hungarian, but he learned, in order, German, French, Spanish, and English. English became his dominant written and spoken language by 1941. His speech was dubbed "Capanese" by friends and was considered incomprehensible, but the interview shows Capa not only clear but highly articulate. His easy style underscores his innate proclivity for self-deprecation, humor, and storytelling. The interview starts with stories from his recent trip to the USSR with John Steinbeck and then turns to other subjects: poker, the invention of his name, his so-called last image of the war taken of an American soldier killed in Leipzig in April 1945. But it is Capa who brings up his famous "Falling Soldier" image and describes how it was made. He says, "The prize picture is born in the imagination of the editors and the public who sees them." It is the only public comment we have directly from him about this famous image. (source: ICP - International Center of Photography)- published: 04 Nov 2013

So said Robert Capa in 1947 in a long-lost recording of his only known radio interview. It has recently been published by the International Center of Photography in New York, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of the Hungarian photojournalist. Capa, who was born Endre Friedmann on October 22 1913 in Budapest, lived for only 40 years and has been dead for 60 more. Yet the public, as well as researchers, still regard him one of the greatest photojournalists of all time. He was a brave, and often reckless, war photographer, taking pictures of five wars in total: the Spanish Civil War; the Second Sino-Japanese War; World War II across Europe; the 1948 Arab-Israeli War; and the First Indochina War. He died during the fifth, in the battle fields of Indochina in 1954. Károly Kincses is a photo-museologist at the Hungarian House of Photography and also the most prolific Hungarian researcher of Capa's work. He described Capa's beginnings as a photographer: "He gave his all to be the greatest. However, his pictures didn't make him the greatest, it was his enchanting personality. His image was born here, in the very heart of Budapest. But, in our eyes he became too streetwise and we disliked that. These were the qualities he took away with him when he left. He couldn't even take photographs at first. Although he learnt the methods of (famous Hungarian phototgrapher and teacher) József Pécsi, he only wanted to chase the girls." Capa wasn't yet 18 when he left his homeland and started his journey. He studied the technical side of photography in Berlin, but it was really his bravery and sensitivity, which made him big. His 70,000 negatives are held in the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York. From those, 937 pieces were selected, becoming known as the Master Selection. From this, three series' of pictures were developed, one of which is owned by the Hungarian National Museum. The centennial exhibition in Budapest shows the different faces of Robert Capa: the photojournalist who took pictures of heroes while being considered a hero himself; the emigrant who was chased by life and driven by ventures; and the gambler who was fond of playing and was not afraid of taking risks. "The visitors are gamblers too," said Éva Fisli, the curator of the exhibition. "They have to accept the fact that here they will not only see good pictures in nice frames, but also a series of exciting installations, which give the little details and fragments needed to make one's own jigsaw puzzle of Capa... well, as close as one can get to a clear picture of 'photojournalism'." Capa was the first photographer on scene for the Second World War D-Day landings in Normandy, on June 6 1944. One photo shows an American soldier, who was shot a mere three metres away from him in Leipzig in April 1945. Capa was following the events and taking pictures, while his fellow-soldiers were fighting. After the war, Capa founded the Magnum Photo Agency with four freelance photographer colleagues in Paris. This was the first cooperative agency for freelance photographers worldwide. In the centennial exhibition, we can also see the final edit of his pictures in the American magazine LIFE. Capa's centenary will see the opening of the Robert Capa Contemporary Photographic Centre in Budapest, on December 2 2013. It will serve as an exhibition space, a cultural centre, and a social centre for professionals. Managing director, Orsolya Kőrösi, explained to euronews the goals of the Capa Centre: "Our main goal is to establish an institution. We'd like to open exhibitions and start professional and educational programmes, to place ourselves on the cultural map of Europe." With the motto "If your photographs aren't good enough, you aren't close enough," Capa became famous for redefining wartime photojournalism. He went as close as possible to everything and everybody. This strategy enabled him to take pictures of the likes of Leon Trotsky and Charles de Gaulle.
