Contents appear a clean, clear, unread copy in wraps displaying moderate surface/edge/wear, as shown, corners folded, spine bumped at bottom.

Widely regarded as the most famous and most controversial celebrity photographer in the world—he's been dubbed "Paparazzo Extraordinaire" by Newsweek, and "the Godfather of U.S. paparazzi culture" by Time and Vanity Fair—Galella is clearly willing to take great risks to get the perfect shot. As a result, Ron has endured two highly publicized court battles with Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis, a broken jaw at the hands of Marlon Brando, and a serious beating by Richard Burton's bodyguards before being jailed in Cuernavaca, Mexico. But ultimately, it is his passion for the fine art of photography, coupled with a dedicated do-it-yourself approach to his craft—few artists can claim his level of skill in making their own prints—that sees Ron's body of work exhibited at museums and galleries throughout the world. The Museum of Modern Art New York and San Francisco, the Tate Modern in London, and the Helmut Newton Foundation Museum of Photography in Berlin, among many others, all maintain collections of Galella's iconic works.
