Annie Leibovitz
By Annie Leibovitz; Preface by Steve Martin; Introduction by Graydon Carter
In creating this landmark volume, photographer Annie Leibovitz drew on more than 40 years of work, starting with the photojournalism she did for Rolling Stone magazine in the 1970s through the conceptual portraits she made for Vanity Fair and Vogue. She selected iconic images as well as portraits that had rarely, if ever, been seen before, while covering political and cultural history, from Queen Elizabeth II and Richard Nixon to Laurie Anderson and Lady Gaga. The project was first published by Taschen in 2014 as an oversized “SUMO” edition that weighed in at 57 pounds. This newly packaged 2022 edition offers the same epic photography collection in a smaller—but still fabulously oversized—format.

Annie Leibovitz is one of the most influential photographers of our time. She began working as a photojournalist for Rolling Stone in 1970 while she was still a student at the San Francisco Art Institute. By 1983, when she left Rolling Stone for the revived Vanity Fair, she was already closely identified with the conceptual, theatrical style that is her hallmark. In subsequent decades, at Vanity Fair and Vogue and in independent projects, she has worked across many photographic genres and developed a large body of work—portraits of actors, directors, writers, musicians, athletes, and political and business figures, as well as fashion photographs—that expanded her collective portrait of contemporary life. She has published several books and has exhibited widely. She is a Commandeur in the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and has been designated a “Living Legend” by the U.S. Library of Congress.
Steve Martin is an award-winning comedian, actor, writer, producer, and musician.
Graydon Carter was the editor of Vanity Fair from 1992 to 2017.
