Checkered Past: A Visual Diary of the ’60s and ’70s

Peter Schlesinger’s first-hand account of his life in London in the late 60s and 70s with David Hockney and his eclectic, fascinating circle of friends – W.H.Auden, Christopher Isherwood, Paloma Picasso, Twiggy, Robert Mapplethorpe, Amanda Lear, Yves St. Laurent, Rudolf Nureyev, and many others – all photographed by Schlesinger and presented here with extended witty and gossipy captions, recounting their foibles and outrageous behavior.
