Edward Steichen: In High Fashion / The Condé Nast Years 1920 – 1937
Steichen was already a famous painter and photographer when in early 1923, he was offered one of the most prestigious positions in photography’s commercial domain, that of chief photographer for Condé Nast’s influential and highly regarded magazines, Vogue and Vanity Fair. Over the next fifteen years, Steichen produced a body of work of unequaled brilliance, putting his exceptional talents to work dramatizing and glamorizing contemporary culture and its achievers, in politics, literature, sports, dance, theater, opera, and above all, the world of high fashion. (contains 242 photographs)

Edward Steichen: Lives in Photography
by Todd Brandow & William A. Ewing

It traces his career trajectory from the early Pictorialist beginnings to his time working with Condé Nast and his directorship of the Department of Photography at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Hundreds of vintage photographs are accompanied by essays from a range of scholars who explore Steichen’s most important subjects and weigh his legacy.
