Long standing editor of Vanity Fair, and hailed as the King of New York, Graydon Carter has turned his attention from Hollywood's finest to spearheading his own campaign to change the face of America by having George Bush removed as president. Bush is the world's number one environmental terrorist. In writing WHAT WE HAVE LOST Carter is determined to activate the liberal masses to prevent Bush from a second term as President. Examining the failings of the Bush administration, the book 'is about the fragile state of US democracy, looking at what this administration has done to the environment, the judiciary and civil liberties. It is different from the other books out there. I am not a liberal ideologue; I am very much a libertarian.' This book will spell out in detail how the Bush administration is dramatically changing America, and by extension, the world. Electing Bush was seen by the world as a mistake. Re-electing will be seen as a hostile act.

Photographic Memory, Claxon's first-ever monograph of these images, features more than 100 such wonderful and revealing portraits, only a handful of which have ever been seen before. Anecdotal stories by Claxton accompanying the images reveal the intimate and first-name basis with which he photographed the well-known icons of celebrity, wit, and style from the past five decades, many of them his dear personal friends. Here for the first time Claxton describes a backstage photo session with Marlene Dietrich; antique shopping with Gloria Swanson; unwittingly provoking Shirley MacLaine into a bawdy comment on a tense, crowded film set during a love scene; and many other unforgettable moments. A stunningly intimate document of our most-loved film and entertainment icons, Claxton's Photographic Memory is sure to become an instant pop-culture heirloom.

"It was time—the election was stolen, robbed by middle-men on top. Folks who though the past was the future because they owned the present. Entitlement didn't come from being lazy; it came from cunning, aggrandizing connivance. The leader was a twice entitles frat boy, a thick-headed intellectual goon, with charisma informed by homily and stubborn gotcha comfort." —Larry Fink  Originally conceived as a scathing comment on the 2000 presidential election, The Forbidden Pictures by Larry Fink were set to run in The New York Times Magazine in the fall of 2001. Then, after the tragic events of September 11 and the ensuing reluctance for criticism found in the media and general public, these images remained largely unseen until their exhibition, first at Lehigh University, Pennsylvania in the spring of 2004, then the following summer at The powerHouse Gallery, New York, timed with the Republican National Convention. Published for the first time in The Forbidden Pictures, Fink's tableaux set Bush administration look-alikes in the opulent world of Weimar-era painting, referencing the decadent depictions of painters Max Beckmann, George Grosz, and Otto Dix.  Included in the catalog is a selction of outraged emails by hostile conservatives in response to the Lehigh exhibition. Equating the images with the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show, one writer declared, "...this is not art! It is DISGUSTING..." Standing in sharp contrast to the populist opinion, Graydon Carter's essay declares that Fink's photographs, "...remind us that after a war based on deception, the tearing away of our civil rights, and the atmosphere of unprecedented secrecy surrounding the White House, it's no longer liberal hysteria to say that we're living under the governace of what can reasonably said to be an imperial presidency." Presenting both sides of the political spectrum, The Forbidden Pictures is a document of—and in fact a response to—the extremities of rhetoric and partisanship that continue to characterize American politics.

VANITY FAIR A TALE OF SOPHISTICATION In 1913, publisher Condé Nast launched Vanity Fair, a magazine that would celebrate the culture, politics, lifestyle and humour of the world's 'smart set'. In the publication's mission statement, editor Frank Crowninshield clearly revelled in that world: 'Young men and young women, full of courage, originality, and genius, are everywhere to be met with.' The magazine discovered or lent invaluable support to such varied names as Dorothy Parker, E. E. Cummings, Noël Coward, Gertrude Stein, P. G. Wodehouse, Cecil Beaton and Man Ray, and frequently reproduced works by the likes of Matisse and Picasso long before anyone in the mainstream press would dare. Vanity Fair's famous philosophy of mixing up classes, races and sexes - as long as they were innovative, gorgeous or talented - was reflected in the dazzling and elegant magazine covers from such hugely influential designers as Paolo Garretto, William Cotton and Eduardo Garcia Benito. These covers are now a memorial to a world of glamour and excitement, gone - but not forgotten. Selected by Graydon Carter
