About the Author:

David Hamilton was born in London in 1933 and lives near St. Tropez, France. After his study of architecture and design he turned to typography and layout. While he was an art director of the English magazine Queen, he bought his first camera. Later settling in Paris as art director of Printemps he began devoting himself exclusively to photography. He has worked for the best international magazines, and his work has been shown all over the world including leading centers of art culture in New, Tokyo, London, Hamburg, Milan, and Paris. He pioneered the "soft focus," style which has been imitated so often and is even known as "the Hamilton look."
