Rod MacIvor
Rod MacIvor (born September 17, 1946 in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, Canada) is a retired Canadian photojournalist.
==Career==
MacIvor worked for Dominion Wide Photos/''The Ottawa Journal'' for a year in 1965, then attended and graduated from Ryerson University 1966-69 in Photographic Arts. After working for United Press International from 1970 to 1980 as the Ottawa Newspictures Manager/Photographer, he joined the ''Ottawa Citizen'' as Assistant Director of Photography/Photographer, where he retired in 2007 after 42 years as a photojournalist at the age of 61.
When working for UPI, MacIvor worked with Margaret Trudeau, wife of then Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, after she asked him to give her photo lessons. She later asked him to shoot their official 1976 Christmas Card photo at Harrington Lake, the Prime Minister's official country retreat. This was the last family Christmas card photo before the Trudeaus' separation. As UPI Ottawa photographer, MacIvor covered Royal Tours, election campaigns, events (including visits by Heads of State) on Parliament Hill and the Trudeaus' 1976 Cuban, Mexico and Venezuelan State visit. Prior to Pierre Trudeau's funeral in 2000, as his casket was leaving Parliament Hill after a lying-in-state ceremony, a distraught Margaret ran to MacIvor, who was covering the ceremony, and put her arms around him, crying. The photo was used in newspapers across the country.〔Lynn and Doug Ball, Life on a Press Pass, Wallbridge House Publishing, 2005 p.163〕
After Mr. Trudeau's death, fifty of MacIvor's images of Pierre Trudeau and his family, taken between 1970-1980, were put together in an exhibit at the Phillip K. Wood Gallery in Almonte, ON (2001) and attracted 20,000 visitors on a cross Canada tour, raising $20,000 for Prostate Cancer Research. Margaret Trudeau, who attended the exhibit, praised MacIvor's photos "''Rod captured the intimate side of Pierre Trudeau, without sensationalism--the reality, not the weakness, the best, not the worst''," she said.〔(One of Canada's best takes a buy-out )〕
