In this rich and diverse memoir, these fascinating tales are recounted alongside the striking imagery with which she has made her name. Incorporating personal reflections, amusing anecdotes, and handwritten letters from the great and the good, along with observations on the complex relationship between photographer and sitter, this stunning book is a treat for photography enthusiasts, and anyone interested in British arts and society over the past 30 years.
