As a child in the ’50s, Joshua Greene was not eager to invite friends over in case Paul Newman or Steve McQueen was at his house—would his friends like him or want to rub elbows with his famous connections? This was the price of being the son of a famous photographer, Milton Greene. However, it did also come with some perks, such as having Sammy Davis Jr. as a godfather and Marilyn Monroe as a babysitter. Milton shot for publications such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and LIFE magazine and his list of subjects ran the Hollywood gamut: Judy Garland, Cary Grant, Liz Taylor, and more.
