Katharine Hepburn -- Katharine Hepburn: star of the silver screen, fashion icon, and quintessential class act. This volume offers an intimate view into the life of a Hollywood giant—from her early years in the studio system, through the famed Spencer Tracy period, to her later life as a grande dame of cinema—and sheds new light on the woman named by the American Film Institute as the greatest female movie star in the history of American cinema. With a compelling mixture of celebrity photographs and casual snapshots, this latest entry in the beloved A Life in Pictures series forms a uniquely stylish portrait. A dazzling collection, Katharine Hepburn captures the life of a legend, onscreen and off.

Pierre-Henri Verlhac is the author of photo-biographies on Marilyn Monroe and Clint Eastwood.

Best-selling author Charles Higham served as a Hollywood feature writer for the New York Times for many years.
