Is That So Kid: David Bailey, Angelica Huston (Hardcover)
by Martin Harrison (Author), David Bailey (Photographer)
David Bailey was the model for the swinging playboy photographer in Michelangelo Antonioni’s classic 1966 film, Blow-Up. Born in London in 1938, Bailey had, by 1960, become the first celebrity photographer–known especially for his revolutionary work for Vogue, and for the fact that he socialized with actors, musicians and royalty. In 1973, Bailey did all his major fashion shoots for British Vogue with actress and, at that time, occasional model, Anjelica Huston. This irresistible volume chronicles the duo’s fiery photographic collaboration. The title, “Is that so Kid,” is borrowed from Houston’s father, film director John Huston’s, trademark retort. Fabulous.
