•We investigate individual citation distributions for very productive authors, or 5.2% of the population accounting for 38% of all articles.•In spite of very large within-field differences, the degree of skewness of individual citation distributions is very similar across fields.•The average individual skewness, plus the differences in individual productivity and mean citation rates determine the macro-level skewness. |
