I agree with this. I imagine a lot of the time with artists who usually come across as self-respecting though, it's the case that the publishing company is twisting their arm into taking the photo. I mean if Gaddis and McCarthy have photos than everyone has to have them.

They can probably have fun with it. Spending whole life in a little room, talking about other people and other things, to have a rare moment for the camera to be pointed on them, even from one who doesnt like photos taken, I can imagine it being fun to have fun with it, be goofy...but then that can come back and haunt your image, which is why there aren't a lot of mages of shakesphere, and some other historical writers

WARNING: Not the same anon to whom you've responded.

I might be mistaken on the exact number, but Shakespeare had at least two, if not four properties. He owned at least one, maybe two residences in Stratford-upon-Avon and he owned Blackfriars Gatehouse in London. He may have also owned a separate property in London since he leased out Blackfriars Gatehouse. His grave in Holy Trinity was also not cheap.

Shakespeare was at least upper middle class... I consider that wealthy, especially since he owned a bit of property.

>By 1597, William, a theatre shareholder, had become so successful that he snapped up New Place, a large Stratford property that experts estimate had at least 20 rooms. Stratford residents even approached him for a loan: the archive has the only surviving letter addressed to Shakespeare, from townsman Richard Quiney, asking for 30 pounds (£30,000 today). Shakespeare reapplied for a family coat of arms, securing the coveted “gentleman’s” title for his father.

>Wells cites Shakespeare’s “big Stratford investments” as evidence that he divided his time between London and home. “He bought New Place; a lot of land in 1604; a share in the church tithes, an investment that brought him a lot of money; a cottage in Cottage Lane. For much of his life, he was investing in property,” says Wells.

From the Financial Times "Why Shakespeare was also a saavy property investor and developer"
