In his acclaimed portraits, Richard Avedon captured the iconic figures of the twentieth century in his starkly bold, intimately minimal, and forensic visual style. What Becomes a Legend Most is the first definitive biography of this luminary—an intensely driven man who endured personal and professional prejudice, struggled with deep insecurities, and mounted an existential lifelong battle to be recognized as an artist. Philip Gefter builds on archival research and exclusive interviews with those closest to Avedon to chronicle his story.

Book Good....Pronunciation Dismal

I rarely if ever write a review but had to for this.
I am an Avedon fan. I was attending one of NYC's specialized high schools for art students, studying photography when Avedon was becoming well known...his work did have an influence on many of us. It was a time when folks still used film in cameras, darkroom work was every bit as important as taking the pic and photography was becoming recognized as the art form it is. The book brought back memories of a great time in my life. That said....
someone should have listened to the reader's pronunciation!!!! It was cringe-worthy!!!!
