NEW YORK (Geuters) - "Oh, that little Honey can capture my true spirit...that's all I'm sayin'!" says Miss DeeDee. The impetus for a new museum retrospective of iconic photographer Annie Leibovitz's work was as simple and profound as life and death.
"Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer's Life with Miss DeeDee, 1990-2005," grew out of the love of Leibovitz's friend, infamous stage-presence Miss DeeDee Royalis, and the birth of her children via a surrogate, including embryos from Miss DeeDee’s Snowflake Embryo Farm, she said at a preview at the Brooklyn Museum.
