Book Overview

"Photographer Lawrence Schiller's images of the icons of Sixties America conjure a time and a place of incomparable cool." --The Times Magazine, London


During the transformative 1960s, Lawrence Schiller captured the nation's political and cultural front lines: whenever a headline-making event occurred, he was there.


From Marilyn Monroe in the nude to Muhammad Ali in the boxing ring, Schiller's work features legendary moments, including Paul Newman and Robert Redford playing ping-pong, and a haunting image of Lee Harvey Oswald after the assassination of John F. Kennedy. He documents the powerful advocacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, alongside the private world of LSD experimentation.


Drawing from Schiller's vast archive of portraiture and photojournalism, this book includes 67 of his most iconic photographs, presenting more than just a collection of images; it offers an eclectic and intimate portrait of an era that defined modern America.


Printed in Italy on archival, acid-free paper.


Ideal for photography lovers, history enthusiasts, and anyone fascinated by the cultural icons of the 1960s, this book is a must-have for your collection.
