About this product

Product Information

First book on Herman Leonard's full body of workOnly book in print containing his iconic jazz portraits of Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Dexter Gordon, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Quincy Jones, among others.Accompanies traveling exhibition of Herman Leonard's photography organized by the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans.Foreword by Quincy JonesWith a camera as his backstage pass, Herman Leonard has photographed the giants of jazz in their golden age, movie stars on set and the fashion world of Paris in the 1960s, as well as the inner sanctums of his beloved New Orleans. His friendships with the jazz greats allowed him to vividly capture the magical moments of the Harlem and Paris jazz clubs in the 1940s and 50s, using his unique command of cinematic lighting to capture the essence of the time. His colorful life and travels enabled him to document the lives of cultural icons of his day, with such rare images as Marilyn Monroe on an elephant in the circus, to Albert Einstein at his desk. This exquisite book is the first full treatment of this extraordinary life and distinctive body of work, giving Leonard's photographs the artistic recognition they deserve.David Houston is Chief Curator at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
