Francesco Scavullo was born on January 16, 1929, in Staten Island, New York, United States.
After graduating from high school in 1945, Francesco Scavullo began working for a studio that produced fashion catalogs. He soon moved on to Vogue. He spent three years as Horst P. Horst's assistant, studying Horst's techniques. In 1948, Francesco Scavullo created a cover for Seventeen that won him a contract with the magazine. Scavullo's soon opened his own studio in Manhattan.
Some of Scavullo's more controversial work included a Cosmopolitan centerfold of a nude Burt Reynolds and photographs of a young Brooke Shields that some considered overly sexual.
Francesco Scavullo also befriended a young teenager from Philadelphia, future supermodel Gia Carangi, whose career he was largely responsible for launching. Later, when Carangi's heroin addiction made it impossible for her to find work, he continued to employ her and support her until her eventual death from complications relating to AIDS.
Scavullo's work has also been used in the covers of Seventeen, Harper's Bazaar, and Rolling Stone. He also published several books, from 1976s Scavullo on Beauty to 2000s Scavullo Nudes.
Francesco Scavullo died of heart failure at the age of 82, while on his way to a photoshoot with a then up-and-coming CNN news anchor, Anderson Cooper. He died in New York on January 6, 2004, and was survived by his partner in life and art, Sean Byrnes.
