Industry Reviews "Richard Avedon's portraits have such iconic power that they are interchangeable with their subjects--like that of Andy Warhol displaying the Frankenstein tracks of his abdominal scars after his shooting in 1968 or the solarized, acid-laced images of the Beatles. " New York Times - Eric P. Nash (01/16/2000)
"This book pairs Avedon's clean, iconic photos with his subjects' own words, and the result feels like time travel to the '60s." Salon - Stephanie Zacharek (12/14/1999)
