The definitive retrospective of Herman Leonard's jazz photography -- 'The greatest jazz photographer in the history of the genre.' Bill Clinton -- arranged as a chronological journey through jazz's greatest names, from Billie Holiday to Duke Ellington and Miles Davis.
This collection includes Leonard's classic photographs of the greats of jazz: from Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Dexter Gordon to Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. His uniquely evocative and cinematic portraits of jazz's most iconic figures in their heyday have gone on to become iconic images in their own right.

This definitive and beautifully produced collection of his work includes all Leonard's most famous images as well as a significant number of previously unpublished photographs.

Herman Leonard was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, in 1923. In 1948, he moved to New York City and opened his first studio in Greenwich Village, where he worked for Life, Esquire, and Playboy while recording the jazz scene in his photographs of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Thelonius Monk and Miles Davis. In 2008, Leonard was the recipient of a Lucie award - the photography world's equivalent of the Oscars - for Outstanding Achievement in Portraiture, as well as the Grammy Foundation's first grant award to a photographer. Leonard died in 2010.
