Book Presentation:
In this book we find Tom Cruise, Brigitte Bardot, Elton John, Mick Jagger, Joan Collins, Michael Caine, Paul Newman, Clint Eastwood, Sean Connery and others who have superseded the fads of reputation and proven their celebrity longevity. The range of Terry O'Neill's celebrity portraits reaches from Audrey Hepburn to Naomi Campbell, from Frank Sinatra to Kate Moss, in a celebration of true celebrity. A.A. Gill's witty and insightful introduction to the book analyzes what it is that allows these people to transcend their contemparies in the pantheon of the renowned; what makes some of them true celebrities, whilst others are merely and briefly famous.
Press Reviews:
“…photographer Terry O'Neill captures celebrities in an equally startling and stunning light.” -- Star “…they seem to capture a by–gone era that may make readers nostalgic for a world they never inhabited themselves.” -- Library Jounal “…unapologetic collaborations between photographer and subject; still, they are unintentionally revealing…” -- The Oprah Magazine “Revealing portraits pack this welcome addition to any coffee table.” -- Star “This tantalizing tribute to photo–journalist Terry O'Neill” -- Us Weekly
