Damien F 1,742 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 That is an awesome picture.I never really liked the picture of him on the main JWFAN banner though - he looks a little pissed off there. I much prefer the picture of him in the same pose but he's smiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmmusic 1,829 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Well, it's not really a picture but a painting, but I think my favourite is this which is featured in the Spielberg/Williams collaboration cd:He seems such a warm person, like a storyteller or like the grandpa we would like to have.

Thor 7,506 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>Great picture of John Williams and family having dinner at the Brown Derby in 1950-something. pic.twitter.com/VHgorH7iut— Doug Adams (@DougAdamsMusic) 2 Octobre 2015Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. Based on the age of the children, this must be later than the 1950s. I'm guessing 1963 or thereabouts. John is obviously at the right, then I'm guessing Mark (some 5 years old), followed by Barbara Ruick with Jennifer (some 7 years old) on her lap. The woman and girl after that, I'm not sure about (the woman does not look like Joan, John's sister), but I'm guessing they are the wife and child of brother Jerry Williams, who's next in line. The woman on the left, I'm not sure about. Doesn't really look like Esther (Williams' mom), nor Joan.Joseph (some 3 years old, if my timeframe is correct) is not seen in the picture.

Thor 7,506 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 We mostly see younger brother Don in the percussion section, but as the IMDB profile shows -- Jerry's been working the stage on his older brother's scores too, all the way up to WAR HORSE (maybe he even worked on TFA?).
