Linda McCartney secured her first breakthrough as a photographer while working as an editorial receptionist at Town and Country magazine. She documented a Rolling Stones promotional event, and the magazine was so impressed with her candid, intimate and relaxed photographs of the band, that they published her images in an editorial feature. This first magazine commission was followed by many more. While working as the house photographer at the Fillmore East in New York City, she photographed many iconic musicians including: B.B. King, The Doors, Frank Zappa, The Beach Boys, The Who, The Kinks and Jimi Hendrix. Linda continued to work prolifically as a photographer throughout her life, documenting family life, landscapes and the natural world, interiors, social documentary and portraits of artists. Her work is in the National Portrait Galleries of both the UK and the USA. – A few light handling dents, otherwise in very good condition with bright colors.
