Eminent artists, spies, fashion designers, aristocrats, dancers, actors, editors, publishers, and Nobel laureates are included in this photographic chronicle of half a century. Liberman, born in Russia in 1912 and educated in London and Paris, was art director of Vu magazine, then Vogue magazine, and later became the editorial director, and ultimately the deputy director, of all CondT Nast magazines. These b&w photos, sumptuously printed full-page in an oversize format (9×12″), can’t fail to impress; the subjects are people of extraordinary beauty, wealth, artistic talent, and/or fame with whom Liberman has interacted during his long life. He provides extensive, anecdotal captions.
