I dont have two lives, Annie Leibovitz writes in the Introduction to this collection of her work from 1990 to 2005. This is one life, and the personal pictures and the assignment work are all part of it. Portraits of well-known figuresJohnny Cash, Nicole Kidman, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Keith Richards, Michael Jordan, Joan Didion, R2-D2, Patti Smith, Nelson Mandela, Jack Nicholson, and William Burroughsappear alongside pictures of Leibovitzs family and friends, reportage from the siege of Sarajevo in the early Nineties, and landscapes. The pictures form a narrative of a life rich in contrasts and continuities. The photographer has a long relationship that ends with illness and death. She chronicles the celebrations and heartbreaks of her large and robust family. She has children of her own. All the while, she is working, and the public work resonates with the themes of the life.
