In Smith’s office, I was deeply impressed by the scores of
large boxes that contain her negatives. The volume of work is
staggering, but so is the subject matter. Not only has she
photographed almost every Australian VIP, she has photographed many
foreign dignitaries, including the Dalai Lama on one end of the
cultural and spiritual scale, and Bill Gates on the other.... I
suspect that there would be few photographers in the world unhappy
with a distillation of work of such depth and breadth.
