Londoner Janette Beckman began her career at the dawn of punk rock working for The Face and Melody Maker. Beckman photographed groundbreaking album covers for The Police's first three albums. Moving to New York in 1982, she was instantly drawn to the underground hip hop scene. Her photographs of the pioneers Afrika Bambaataa, Run DMC, Salt-N-Pepa, and Grandmaster Flash are collected in RAP: Portraits and Lyrics of a Generation of Black Rockers (St. Martin's Press, 1991). Beckman's work has appeared in Esquire, Rolling Stone, and Glamour, among others. She lives and works in New York. more...

We particularly like the Limited Edition of two hundred copies that include a copy of the book in a slipcase designed by Paul Smith, with your choice of one of ten images from the book, signed and numbered by the artist. The Paul Smith Limited Edition
