James Dean

Roth first met James Dean on the set of Giant and they immediately became friends. Dean often visited the home of Sandy and Beulah. He treated them as adoptive parents. Poignantly, Sanford Roth was in the car behind James Dean when he died in the tragic car accident. He took the now-famous-post-accident photographs. Out of respect for his friends and family, he destroyed the negatives of Dean.
