NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING KATE WINSLET

Lee Miller, 1927 - New York: A classically beautiful young woman, she is discovered by Condé Nast, hits the cover of Vogue and is immortalized by Steichen, Hoyningen-Huene, Horst and other famous photographers.

Lee Miller, 1929 - Paris: Protégé and lover of Man Ray, she invents with him the solarization technique of photography, develops into a brilliant Surrealist photographer, and plays the statue in Cocteau's film Blood of a Poet.

Lee Miller, 1939-45 - Europe: Living at times with her future husband, the painter Roland Penrose, she becomes a US war correspondent and covers the siege of St Malo and the liberation of Paris. Her photographs of Dachau concentration camp shock the world.

These are but three of the many lives of Lee Miller, intimately recorded here by her son, Antony Penrose. Featuring a selection of her finest work, including portraits of her friends Picasso, Ernst and Miró, Penrose's tribute to his mother brings to life a uniquely talented woman and the turbulent times in which she lived.

“A fascinating revelation of an adventurous and protean spirit.” - Sunday Times

Beautifully Haunting

The writing and telling of Lee’s many lives were thought and image provoking. I cried. I laughed. I can only imagine how difficult and yet therapeutic this project must have been for her son/family. At the very least a better understanding of why she was emotionally unavailable.

Interesting But Not Amazing

This biography wavered between interesting and unbearable, especially during chapters where the narrator was reading Lee’s letters which sounded like poorly written postcards from summer camp to mom. The narration was annoying— the male voice imitates random accents and the female voice that sounded like a cheesy Am radio commercial. Would not recommend.
