From photographing world-renowned comedians on the set to capturing quiet, behind-the-scene moments, Marcus will share what inspires him to click the shutter but also what leads him not to take a picture. Gain insight into how Marcus connects with his subjects to create stories with maximum impact, as well as how he pursues personal projects that mirror his emotions.

The program is moderated by former Editor-in-Chief of LIFE magazine, Bill Shapiro.
