Publisher's Notes
"A walk on the wild side" is a fitting description of this collection of provocative photographs of cross dressers, drag artists and transsexuals by London’s Jeanette Jones. Jeanette Jones took the London art scene by storm when her photographs were exhibited at the elegant Freud’s gallery. Since then she has gone from London to Paris to New York to Miami Beach, snapping her lens, revealing the reality behind the fantasy of drag. Here is a look into a world far different from the average.

Us and Them
by Helmut Newton
Helmut Newton met his wife, June, in Melbourne, Australia, in 1947 -- when he was becoming a fashion photographer and she was an actress. In 1970 June (who changed her artist's name to Alice Springs) started taking pictures as well. She focused on portraiture, while he continued to shock the photography and fashion establishment by melding haute couture with eroticism. Us and Them documents the revealing pictures they took of each other, as well as both self-portraits and celebrities the two of them photographed. The book gives us a glance into a very intimate, warm relationship between two photographers, and between wife and husband. Whether in Paris at their apartment at Rue Aubriot or in the hotel Chateau Marmont, Hollywood, their most intimate portraits come to life. All of these images are testimony to a vibrant and loving, private and professional relationship of fifty years. After the book Pages of the Glossies, which revealed the depth of Newton's work as a fashion photographer, this volume contains, for the first time, mostly unpublished images of the deeply emotional and intense relationship of two well-known artists.

Here is a look into a world far removed from ordinary life. It is a world where some of the most beautiful women are men, and they wear an extravagant collection of outfits as they dress up, parade and live out their fantasies. When" Amber Rose" introduced Jones to London's Madame Jo-Jo's, the legendary drag nightclub, she quickly won the trust of the regulars. She photographed the Barbettes, the nightclub's "Girls" -- a first in photographic history. Jones describes how she was educated into this life-style; "Ambrose ('Amber Rose') explained the meaning of the different sides of drag. Cross-dressers aren't necessarily gay - women wear trousers, so why can't men wear skirts? Transvestites like wearing women's clothes for sexual pleasure. Transsexuals are men who have had sex-change surgery and lead lives as women - or vice versa. " Jones has become a trusted and respected among transsexuals and cross-dressers, and they have taken her into their confidence. In her role as reportage photographer, she carries her camera to record all main drag events. About the Author Jeanette Jones was once just an average housewife who took evening classes to learn how to take pictures. That was before she discovered, and was discovered by, the world of drag artists. Her fascination stems from the day she attended a party with her husband and was asked by a man if he could try on her jacket. Now her talents are constantly in demand as a portrait, reportage and advertising photographer. When she isn't producing her remarkable photographs, she lives just outside London with her husband and children. . ( more information) Offered by BobPrudhomme, Relentless Bookfinder (United States)
