Peter Beard "Zara's Tales" |
American photographer, writer, diarist,
Peter Beard--best known for his photos of African wildlife and photo-collage diaries, as well as his party-boy / celebrity lifestyle and larger-than-life personality--lives between Hog Ranch in Nairobi and Montauk. Born in New York City in 1938 to an aristocratic family, Beard first traveled to Africa in 1955 inspired by Karen Blixen's, "Out of Africa." Thanks now to the management of his work by his wife, Nejma, his work is starting to receive the attention he deserves.
