I have been holding onto a very big secret for the past four years. A secret that I am finally able to share with all of you. I wrote a book, my very first book titled AUDREY HEPBURN IN PARIS, published by HarperCollins. The book chronicles Audrey Hepburn’s life in the city of light, from her initial visit in 1951 before a fabled happenstance encounter with the great Colette to her final days as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. My journey with Audrey Hepburn in Paris began back in January 2020 with a cryptic email from Luca Dotti, Audrey Hepburn’s son, followed by a phone call where he personally asked me to write this book about his mother. Audrey Hepburn in Paris includes 25 chapters detailing Audrey’s life, movies, fashion shows, her relationships with Givenchy, Richard Avedon, Diana Vreeland, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Alexandre de Paris and so much more. You will learn about the places she visited, her favorite hotels, her friendships, her iconic fashions, movie premieres, her marriages, divorces, her sons, and most importantly, her perspective on life from her very own words.
The book is filled with gorgeous photos, many never before seen, by famous photographers such as Douglas Kirkland, Cecil Beaton, Terry O’Neill, Bert Stern, Edward Quinn, Henry Wolf, Hamilton Millard, Per-Olow Anderson, Sergio Strizzi, Pierluigi Praturlon, and Zinn Arthur.
This book was a labor of love that I’m thrilled to share with all of you. Every word, quote, and photo was chosen with care. Whether you’re a lifelong Audrey fan or you just discovered her today, this book is for you. There are untold stories and facts sprinkled throughout every chapter that will surprise even the most devoted fans. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed creating it. With lots of love, I present to you, AUDREY HEPBURN IN PARIS. Introduction by Luca Dotti and foreword by the celebrated fashion designer, Giambattista Valli.
