the top were celebrated fashion photog rapher
Steven Meisel and Supermodel Linda Evangelista.
Norwich quickly reached out to each about doing
a book. A fter a few years, Evangelista signed on, and Meisel suggested
they do one together. The result is Linda Evangelista Photographed by
Steven Meisel, a 190-image volume spanning more than 25 years, with an

says the long time fashion journalist and novelist. "Steven's relationship
with Linda was always compelling. They met and they became really best
friends and chosen family over all these many years."
