Before Richard Avedon Transformed Fashion Photography, He Transformed Harper's Bazaar (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Say you’re Richard Avedon. You’re 21 years old, New York born and bred. Everyone calls you Dick. It’s 1944, so World War II is still raging. You’re just out of the Merchant Marine, where you were tasked with taking portraits of sailors for ID cards. In high school, you had wanted to be a writer. You were even co-editor of the literary journal. But you didn’t end up graduating, and your dreams of becoming a man of letters felt dashed before they could ever be realized. So you resolve to become a

Paul Ames was five years old when federal agents raided his family’s home, arrested his parents, and took away most of their belongings. Ames’s father, Aldrich Ames, was a longtime CIA officer responsible for recruiting and handling intelligence sources in the Soviet Union.

She was 99. A washboard. A clock. A doll. A feather. A piece of jewelry. Saar gathered the overlooked and the unwanted—objects that carried the residue of other lives—and rearranged them until they seemed to speak again. Born Bety

Derek C. Blasberg’s new book, Fast + Louche, is a collection of images Blasberg shot for a column of the same name that he did for Interview magazine between 2009 and 2012. Armed with a Canon PowerShot digital camera and a dream that he was very much intent on living, Blasberg, now a contributing editor at Harper’s Bazaar, documented the social swirl that surrounded fashion, art, and downtown New York in the very late aughts and early 2010s. The book, though, is much more than a compendium of ol
