Photographer: Russell Gay

Russell Gay (born c. 1916) was a British glamour photographer. He was known in the 1950s for his discovery of the model Sabrina. In 1957, Gay was described by Art and Photography magazine as “the UK’s top glamour photographer”.

In the 1960s, under Mistral Films, Gay produced a series of low-budget films distributed on 8 mm, including World Without Shame and the sex/horror short film Blood Lust. In 1966, Gay launched the soft-core pornographic magazine Fiesta, followed by its more upmarket sister magazine Knave in 1968.

He was the first husband of Patricia Maureen Rose, who was 32 years younger than him. She later married the billionaire John Kluge.

Gay moved to Monaco in the 1980s and sold his magazine business.

 

Disclaimer: Images in “Photo Sets” were found all around the internet. I tried to put them together in sets based on the researchers I made. Many images were originally black & white, but sometimes I found images artificially coloured in post-production or digital image software. I prefer the originals, but I am adding the coloured ones too. For more information about sources, please check here, and for copyright infringement, here.
