A survey of the American musicians photographed over a thirty-year career by the most celebrated photographer in America.
Annie Leibovitz's extraordinary career took off in San Francisco in 1970 when she first submitted a portfolio to 'Rolling Stone' magazine. By 1973 she was the magazine's chief photographer. Since 1983 Annie Leibovitz has worked closely
with 'Vanity Fair', who will be producing a special music issue to coincide with this book.
Her subjects include Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams, Dolly Parton, Marvin Gaye, Chuck Berry and even Philip Glass. She has created a body of new work for the book, covering the landscape of American music - the juke joints of the Delta, Graceland, BB King at his hometown of Indianola in Mississippi and the Carter family in Virginia.
This book is a tribute to a great culture in its widest form by the photographer who has understood more than anybody the power of the iconic image.
