Larry Shinoda
Black and white portrait of Larry Shinoda, a Japanese-American automobile designer. In the photograph, which is cropped to show his head and shoulders, Shinoda is smiling and wearing a dark suit, white shirt, and dark tie. This image was originally posted to the National Corvette Museum upon Shinoda's induction in 1998 (one year after he had died), and from appearances, may date back to the 1980s or 1990s, meaning that Shinoda appears to be in his 50s or 60s in the image. Shinoda is wearing his hair parted on the left, swept back from his forehead; the hair is almost uniformly black in the photograph.
