THAT'S MY LIFE
A collection of art, featuring photographs of Tina Turner by celebrity photographers.
Tina Turner is known the world over as a legendary music icon, selling 200 million records and more tickets to her live concerts than any other solo performer in history. She was the first woman to bust open the male clubhouse of rock royalty, and became a twelve-time Grammy Award-winning recording artist, including three Grammy Hall of Fame Awards and a Gram- my Lifetime Achievement Award. Over her exceptional career, she has been a style muse for world-famous photographers, who saw in her a pop icon, a lioness, and a phoenix rising from the ashes. She has also inspired countless designers, visual artists and, of course, the musical talent who followed in her footsteps.
Her new book, That's My Life, is an outstanding collection of art, featuring quintessential photographs by celebrity photographers such as Peter Lindbergh, Annie Leibovitz, Bruce Weber, Anton Corbijn, Richard Avedon, Herb Ritts, Andy Warhol, Lord Snowdon, and Paul Cox.
A true tribute to the unparalleled impact Tina has had on a variety of artists, it will be complete with illustrations by fashion designers such as Christian Louboutin and Bob Mackie, hand- written correspondence from friends like Beyoncé, Giorgio Armani, Bryan Adams, Mick Jagger, a tender love letter from her husband, and personal notes from Tina herself.
Even at 80 years old, with the record-breaking Tina: The Tina Turner Musical spotlighting her life on Broadway and introducing her to a new generation of fans, she still believes that age is just a number. Yet, reflecting on the photographs selected for this book, Tina feels that they truly bring her past to life: performances in the biggest stadiums around the world, collabora- tions with talented musicians like David Bowie, deep friendships, beautiful travels from Gha- na to France, decades of style and, of course, her wigs!
Tina Turner's previous two books have been New York Times bestsellers. In both booksher 1986 memoir I, Tina, which was made into the Oscar-nominated motion picture What's Love Got to Do with It; and her 2018 follow-up autobiography My Love Storyshe briefly spoke of her search for spiritual wisdom and the ways in which she used her meditative practice to transform her life.
