This is a remarkable pictorial and editorial memoir from a remarkable person. Her ability to insinuate herself inside the corridors of power is unsurpassed.

Truly Fabulous!

This is SUCH an amazing book. I couldn't tear myself away. The text & stories to go along with the photos makes this a unique experience in a beautiful coffee table photography book, not to mention the fabulous pictures she takes. Anyone interested in public figures, politics, business, or photography would love this book.

A keen and creative eye

Diana Walker has enjoyed extraordinary photographic access to American political, business, and social leaders for decades. Combine this with a highly skilled photographic eye and a sly sense of humor and you get a rich collection of portraits, sometimes funny, sometimes moving, always revealing. A treat.
