Barbra Streisand

From the moment she burst onto the scene in the early 1960s, Barbra Streisand set about busting through every obstacle that stood in her way and smashing every glass ceiling in showbiz. She won every top award for her work in the recording studio, on stage, on the movie set, and behind the camera; she became a beauty symbol; and she made sure her voice was heard in the political sphere. For almost half a century, Streisand has had the world on a string, and the world has loved it. In addition to celebrated photographs of the star, Barbra features less well-known photographs by Terry Fincher, Bill Eppridge, and Terry O'Neill, in a unique presentation of the life and work of an American cultural icon.
