Large Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. First edition. No jacket. Boards faded, ink gift note on front endpaper. 1961 Large Hardcover. Unpaginated. (1903 - 2003). The caricature artist Al Hirschfeld was especially known for his drawings of show-business personalities. His drawings, watercolors, lithographs, etchings, and sculptures are to be found in both private and museum collections. Albert Hirschfeld was born on June 21, 1903, in St. Louis, Mo. He became interested in art at an early age and began studying drawing, painting, and sculpting. When he was 11 his family moved from St. Louis to upper Manhattan in New York City, where he continued his art studies. His first jobs were in the art departments of several motion picture studios in New York. In 1924 he went to Europe to study art. There he started to concentrate on drawing rather than sculpting or painting. He lived mostly in Paris in the 1920s but returned often to New York City. During this time Hirschfeld began to create caricatures of theater people. These caricatures became very popular and were published in several New York newspapers, notably The New York Times. His drawings of nontheatrical personalities were popular as well. In the 1930s he took a long trip to the Far East, where he was greatly influenced by Japanese and Javanese art. Beginning in the 1940s, Hirschfeld illustrated books by such authors as S.J. Perelman (Westward Ha! [1948], Swiss Family Perelman [1950]), Fred Allen (Treadmill to Oblivion [1954]), and Brooks Atkinson (The Lively Years [1973]). He also began producing books of which he was both author and illustrator, such as Show Business Is No Business (1951) and Hirschfeld by Hirschfeld (1979). In The World of Hirschfeld (1968) he wrote extensively about his life and technique. During his career, Hirschfeld received a myriad of awards and honors. In addition to being featured in periodicals and books, his art was displayed in galleries and museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art, both of which are in New York City. In 1991 the U.S. Postal Service issued five stamps featuring Hirschfeld's caricatures of comedians Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy, Jack Benny, Fanny Brice, and Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. Hirschfeld's life and art were featured in the 1996 documentary film The Line King, which was nominated for an Academy award. Hirschfeld continued to work until his death, at the age of 99, on Jan. 20, 2003. Several days before his passing, he was informed of two more honors - he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters and he was chosen to receive the National Medal of Arts.
