A new edition of the bestselling Every Picture Tells a Story from
one of the greatest photographers of the last 60 years, Terry
O'Neill. This updated edition includes 32 additional pages of new
stories behind some of the O'Neill's most iconic images. From the
morning he spent with Faye Dunaway at the pool in Beverly Hills, to
walking around Vegas with Sean Connery dressed as James Bond, a
chance encounter with Bruce Springsteen on the Sunset Strip, to
taking Jean Shrimpton to a doll hospital - these are the stories
behind the images as only Terry O'Neill can reveal. "I was walking
up the Miami Beach boardwalk to the Fontainebleau Hotel where
Sinatra was staying... I just reached out with the letter in my
hand and he took it. He opened it, read it... turned to his
security men and said, "this kid's with me." I never found out what
Ava said to him in that letter. From that moment on, I was part of
his inner circle." - Terry O'Neill From The Beatles to the Rolling
Stones, Terry O'Neill fast became the photographer of the 1960s.
Having an eye - and ear - for music and musicians, he instinctively
knew what bands to focus on. And they in turn trusted him. "I
remember sitting in a pub with the Beatles and the Stones. We were
just hanging-out and talking about what we'd do next, after all of
this was over. By this, we meant the fame, being the 'new kids of
the moment'. Usually, this sort of celebrity doesn't last. Little
did we know that 60 years later, we'd still be at it." Music led
O'Neill to Hollywood and working with stars resulted not only in to
memorable moments but long-lasting friendships. He travelled with
Frank Sinatra. Took Raquel Welch to the beach. Went in the ring
with Ali. Put The Who in a cage. O'Neill captured many of the most
unforgettable faces from the frontline of fame, and his photographs
exude his own brand of serene simplicity, intimate behind-the-scene
moments and the rare quality of trust between photographer and
subject. The list of people Terry O'Neill has worked with over the
past 60 years is a Who's Who in celebrity; from film to music,
sports to politics. Terry O'Neill: Every Picture Tells a Story is
like going through a walking tour of memory by a man who has seen,
met and photographed them all.
