[Lee Miller]
A first edition of the illustrated survey of the life Lee Miller on which the film Lee is based. Miller was an independent and free spirit, and fearlessly travelled across international borders. Her many "lives" include photographer, model, muse, lover, wife, surrealist, actor, war correspondent, cook and mother. The Lives of Lee Miller is told by her son Antony Penrose, who draws on his privileged access to her unpublished writings and large archive of photographs.
