At the height of his career, Bert Stern operated a large studio, not unlike Andy Warhol's Factory, from which he created award-winning advertisements, editorial photographs, magazine covers, films and portraits. Firmly associated with the golden age of advertising, many of his images are classics. This book collects 150 examples of his work. His advertising images, like the Egyptian pyramid seen inverted in a glass for a 1960s' Smirnoff advertisement, are featured, as well as portraits of famous women, from Elizabeth Taylor and Drew Barrymore to Twiggy and Iman.
About the Author: Robert A. Sobieszek is Curatorial Co-chair and Curator of Photography at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
