The Oklahoman shot Ralph Lauren, Audrey Hepburn, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and other notables.
A man of multiple talents, whose exacting nature applied to such other pursuits as teaching, baking and trumpet playing, Turner was not inclined to do anything halfheartedly. In what was a 17-year run as a staff photographer at WWD that started in 1989, Turner’s specialty was portraits of high-profile designers like Ralph Lauren andand Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. That tenure, which included assignments for W magazine, wound down in 2006 with his departure to Hearst Magazines.
Services will be held at the convenience of his family, according to the online post about Turner on the New Comer. In addition, RIT is planning a tribute for Turner, after students return to campus next fall.Turner’s introduction to the world of publishing was second nature — his father Fred owned and ran the local newspaper, which is where the younger Turner got his start as a cub photographer.
His music skills were up there, too, with Turner occasionally bringing his trumpet to WWD’s offices to play if there was a lull, for his fellow photographers in their locker room and studio. Turner also loved discussing everything from Mozart to Louis Armstrong to Freddie Hubbard, Nardoza said. “When he left us for a big job at Hearst, it was a major loss for us, but a good move for David.
Wilson added, “He was so versatile and such a gentleman with all of the designers. He never broke his focus even whenTurner would want to be remembered as someone who always pursued the best, he said. “He was a respected artist in every field he touched. When he was a teacher, he was the best teacher. When he played trumpet, he played it with soul. When he took pictures, he did it all the way. When he cooked, he was passionate. There were no shortcuts,” Iannaccone said.
