About the artist:

Annie Leibovitz’s remarkable career began in the 1970s, when she made her mark as “Rolling Stone” magazine’s chief photographer. Immersed in the cultural and social upheavals of the era, her work quickly became emblematic of the time. In the early 1980s, she transitioned to photographing for “Vanity Fair” and later “Vogue,” broadening her scope and establishing herself as the definitive portraitist of the world’s most fascinating figures.

Leibovitz’s trailblazing achievements include being the first female artist to have a solo exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC, in 1991. Her contributions to photography have been recognized with numerous accolades, including lifetime achievement awards from the International Center of Photography and the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. In a testament to her enduring influence, she has also been named a living legend by the Library of Congress.
