The fascinating collection of photographs in Snowdon on Stage presents a period of startling change in theatre - from 1954 to the present - in addition to the many changes Snowdon himself initiated in the style of theatre photography. Snowdon's photographs capture the reckless, stylish spirit of genius of some of the world's greatest stage actors - Nigel Hawthorne, Peter Ustinov, Fiona Shaw, Ralph Fiennes, Vanessa Redgrave, Helen Mirren, and of course, Laurence Olivier - as well as directors, designers, and writers such as Alan Bennett, Arthur Miller, Harold Pinter, and Alan Ayckbourn. Simon Callow's introduction gives and insider's account of the people and places of the heyday of British theatre, and Snowdon's part in it all.

Lord Snowdon is Koto Bolofo's photographic portrait of legendary British photographer Antony Armstrong-Jones, known to the world as Lord Snowdon. The infamous Snowdon has photographed many icons of the twentieth century including David Bowie, Miuccia Prada and Gilbert and George, and through his 1960 marriage to Princess Margaret, he has become a privileged photographer to the British royal family. This book is Bolofo's tribute to Snowdon's life and work, and a document of the man behind the public persona. Snowdon and Bolofo hit it off from their first meeting ("Would you like a drink?" asked Snowdon, at 11 am in the morning), and their rapport is evident in Bolofo's portraits of Snowdon in his London home and studio. Lord Snowdon includes images of old newspaper clippings, as well as Snowdon's archives and notebooks, making the book the most tender and comprehensive study of Snowdon to date.
