At the 8th annual CFDA awards where Hepburn presented the Lifetime Achievement Award to Avedon, June 9, 1989
It was during the 8th annual CFDA awards where Audrey Hepburn made a rare public appearance to present the Lifetime Achievement Award to her dear friend Richard Avedon. In her speech, she spoke on her friendship and history with Avedon:
“For Richard, I've happily swung through swings, stood in clouds of steam, been drenched with rain, and descended endless flights of stairs without looking and without breaking my neck…. Only with Richard have I been able to shed my innate self-consciousness in front of the camera. Is it his sweetness? Is it his sense of fun? The assurance that you know you're going to end up looking the way you wished you looked?”
