Beautiful, bewitching and an exceptionally good photographer, Lee Miller was one of life’s adventurers.
She became a Vogue cover girl in ‘20s New York before discovering Paris, Man Ray and Surrealism, and then dramatically changed her life yet again, reinventing herself as a US war correspondent.
Lee Miller’s son, Antony Penrose, has intimately recorded her life in this acclaimed biography.
A rich selection of Miller’s own finest work, including portraits of her friends Picasso, Braque, Ernst, Eluard and Miró, complement Penrose’s tribute to a unique talent.

Beginning her own studio in Paris with artist Man Ray, she went on to work with Vogue, and in France, Egypt, and New York, being best remembered for her witty Surrealist images.
