The definitive book on the life of the legendary
photographer Herb Ritts, with never-before-seen images and
interviews with his closest confidants. At the time of his
death in 2002, Herb Ritts was among the most celebrated
photographers in celebrity portraiture, fashion, and music
videos. During a career that spanned nearly thirty years, he
was virtually in a league of his own in terms of style and
productivity. Ritts was Hollywood royalty, as were his
closest friends and the subjects he photographed. The Golden
Hour reveals for the first time the personal aspects of
Ritts’s world, work, and legacy. The book includes many
never-before-seen photographs and scores of interviews from
business associates, curators, staff, lovers, and family,
such as Cindy Crawford, Elton John, Anna Wintour, Madonna,
Calvin Klein, and Christopher Buckley (Ritts’s college
roommate). The book includes images from Ritts’s personal
archive—behind the scenes at photo shoots, parties, travels,
intimate portraits, and moments with friends—along with
notes and contact sheets that show how ideas became his
best-known iconic images.
