The Lives of Lee Miller: The Inspiration for the Major Motion Picture "Lee"

A compelling chronicle of the many lives of artist and photographer Lee Miller―the inspiration for the major motion picture Lee, to be released in theaters September 27. Beautiful, bewitching, and an exceptionally good photographer, Lee Miller was one of life's adventurers. She became a Vogue cover girl in 1920s New York before embracing Paris, photography, and surrealism, and then dramatically changed her life yet again, reinventing herself as a war correspondent, notably covering the liberation of Dachau. These are but three of the many lives of Lee Miller, intimately recorded here by her son, Antony Penrose. Featuring a selection of Miller's finest work, including portraits of her friends Picasso, Tanning, and Ernst, Penrose's tribute to his mother brings to life a uniquely talented woman and the turbulent times in which she lived. 116 color illustrations Read more
