CONGRATS JAMIE LEE CURTIS ON YOUR OSCAR!!! Just shy of 40 years ago I photographed Jamie Lee Curtis while on set making a movie with Patrick Swayze and C. Thomas Howell in Pontiac, Ill. I had never been on a movie set and was a bit overwhelmed and starstruck. I was assigned by the local newspaper but no one had made any arrangements for me to be there. When I arrived the producer said I couldn’t make any photos and I was looking a bit deflated and disappointed when Jamie came up to me and asked, “What do you need honey?” 
I replied, "I just need a few pics of you for my local newspaper." 
That one photo wound up being a photo page in the Sunday edition of the newspaper because Jamie’s kind heart allowed me to make several images of her and the other actors. I was very humbled when the day it published I was asked to send the photos to her because she loved them. I was so moved by her graciousness on the set that day that I never forgot it. I’ve had this image of her framed since I made it in 1984. When she won the Oscar today I was in tears of joy because she has been such an inspiration always and so deserving of this award not just for this movie but throughout her career as one of the most admired and respected actresses and down to earth people in the industry. Huge congrats Jamie Lee Curtis on your Best Supporting Actress Oscar, you continue to inspire!! Photo Copyright ©Renée C. Byer. jamieleecurtis #oscars #academyawards2023
