FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER

MICHAEL GAFFNEY

The Champ My Year with Muhammad Ali
Personal Photographer to Muhammad Ali

Michael Gaffney was a personal photographer to Muhammad Ali and captured rare and beautiful images presented in this photographic tribute exhibition to “the Greatest.” THE CHAMP exhibition is based on Michael Gaffney’s coverage during 1977-1978 and culled from over 8,000 images that reveal the poignant and honest moments that define the legendary Ali.

The story inside The Champ documents a tough win against Earnie Shavers, a shocking loss to Leon Spinks, and a glorious redemptive comeback victory to win the World Heavyweight Championship for an unprecedented third time. Gaffney's unique access shares a compelling personal journey inside the good heart and courageous spirit of one of the most extraordinary people of our lifetime…Muhammad Ali.
