Billie Holiday (Moneta Sleet Jr., Ebony Collection, 1959) -- Moneta Sleet Jr. recalls this harrowing image of Billie--one of his most reproduced photographs--in the last year of her life, her arms scarred from needles: "A very tragic figure. During the photo session, she seemed as if she was just going through the motions. There was despair in her eyes."
