Overview

This book is based on the author's detailed journals and Jack Fritscher creates a fresh, fast-paced count that hooks the reader like a turning novel.

It started when the undiscovered Mapplethorpe flew to San Francisco in 1977 to ask Fritscher, then editor of Drummer magazine, to look at his portfolio. Fritscher, recognizing Mapplethorpe's talent, assigned and supervised his first cover. They later became friends, colleagues, and lovers.
