The first time I saw Audrey Hepburn was in BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S. I was thirteen and she made an indelible impression on me. She was just beautiful with an elfin charm, an effortless quality on the screen that has never been matched by any actress on screen since. It was also my first truly adult movie and Audrey represented this sophisticated, elegant, gorgeously dressed image unlike any other. CHARADE was next and I was hooked. I made it my mission to see every Audrey Hepburn film I could find and nearly 50 years later, she remains my absolute favorite movie star.When Audrey died, I was frankly surprised that she meant so much to so many and since then, her life has been the subject of numerous biographies, style and photo books, tributes, short stories, calendars, etc. Most cultural icons who die lived lives of addiction and excess. Think Elvis, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, and they died relatively young. Audrey was in her 60s, and decades beyond the glory years as a romantic screen ingenue, Except for the occasional small film appearance, Audrey was pretty much retired. She had become more famous as an international UN Embassador traveling worldwide to champion the cause of starving children. Yet she continued to fascinate, and her films on VHS and later on DVD continued to extend her legend. Her extraordinary timeless fashion appeal never went out of style--and is still emulated today. I've managed to accumulate a lot of books dedicated to Audrey's life and work, which now numbers over 20 volumes. Naturally, I had to have AUDREY: The 60s.Beginning with BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S, the book follows Audrey's ascent to superstardom through her final eight films of the decade, made in six short years.
