In February 1955, when Dennis Stock became a full-partner member to Magnum agency rather late, Life magazine commissioned him to contribute a photo story on James Dean (1931–1955). When posthumous fame made James Dean an idol, this feature story also had a stimulating influence on Stock's career as a photojournalist. In comparison with the widely known motif showing Dean with pulled-up collar on a rain-soaked day at Times Square, this portrait reveals much more of the person behind the myth, as Dean is addressing the camera with a charming glance.

早期明胶银盐照片，双重重量光面纸，非常好的状态。摄影师的版权印章，负片编号印章“56-7-13/9”和铅笔手写注释在背面。文献：《Moody New Star》，发表于《LIFE》杂志，1955年3月7日，第125-128页（同系列）；Hans-Michael Koetzle（编），《Augen Auf! 100 Jahre Leica》，海德堡，2014年，第323页。1955年2月，当丹尼斯·斯托克较晚成为马格南机构的全职成员时，《Life》杂志委托他为詹姆斯·迪恩（1931–1955）拍摄一个摄影故事。当詹姆斯·迪恩死后，这个专题故事也对斯托克的摄影记者生涯产生了促进作用。与广为人知的迪恩在雨天的时代广场上拉起衣领的照片相比，这张肖像揭示了他更加接近真实的那面，因为迪恩正以迷人的目光看向镜头。
