Publisher's Synopsis
Photographer, collector, diarist, and writer Peter Beard has fashioned his life into a work of art; the illustrated diaries he kept from a young age evolved into a serious career as an artist and earned him a central position in the international art world. He was painted by Francis Bacon, painted on by Salvador Dalí, he made diaries with Andy Warhol and toured with Truman Capote and the Rolling Stones - all of whom are brought to life, literally and figuratively, in his work. This volume takes a journey into his world.
