Photographer Annie Leibovitz

You don't get higher-profile than the celebrity portraits of photographer Annie Leibovitz. From the covers of Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair to the Hollywood heights, she has famously photographed Demi Moore nude and very pregnant, John Lennon curled around Yoko Ono, Michael Jordan looking godlike, and Jack Nicholson putting in his bathrobe on Mulholland Drive.

Now, in a powerful new collection, Annie Leibovitz is also going personal — to the heart of life, love and death, with her family and her longtime soulmate Susan Sontag.

We travel from the peaks of celebrity life to the stark valley of death with photographer Annie Leibovitz.
