John Lennon's life, death and music shaped the world. His reputation as a philanthropist, political activist and pacifist influenced millions worldwide. If Elvis was King, Lennon was his rightful successor - and fittingly, several images in this collection of both classic and unseen photos show him wearing a diamond-studded 'Elvis' pin over his heart, in homage to his forefather on the throne of Rock 'n' Roll. Renowned celebrity photojournalist Brian Hamill delivers his own insider view of this Beatles icon, through intense, intimate photographic portraits and insightful essays. Whether Lennon is dominating the stage, posing against windswept cityscapes, or relaxing with Yoko Ono, Hamill's photography takes this quasi-mythical figure from the world of Rock 'n' Roll and shows him as the man he really was. AUTHOR: Brian Hamil has been photographing icons of popular culture for over 50 years. His photojournalism career began in the 1960s; since then he has assisted leading fashion photographers, covered the Troubles in Northern Ireland for The New York Times Magazine, and worked as a unit still photographer on over 75 motion pictures. His photographs have been shown in numerous solo exhibitions across North America, and in London and Italy. Many major magazines have published his work, including Life, Time, Newsweek, Vanity Fair, Esquire, Rolling Stone and The Saturday Evening Post. SELLING POINTS: . New and unseen photographs of Beatles icon, John Lennon . A series of essays from the photographer relate the exclusive story behind the images captured in this book . Foreword by Pete Hamill - bestselling author, award-winning columnist and editor for The New York Post and The New York Daily News, essayist and educator
