Summary: During Hollywood's Golden Era, publicity photos had the same power to make or break stars as the films in which they appeared. The most sought-after photographer of the time was George Hurrell, who perfected the "glamour" portrait. Here, 275 of his classic duotone photos are brilliantly reproduced, using archival prints that preserve his dramatic lighting effects.
