Stars like Tom Cruise and Rupert Everett are featured in the new photography book ‘In their Youth: Early Portraits’ by famed photographer Greg Gorman. Set for release in October, the book features 200 unpublished portraits that the photographer has taken over the past three decades. It’s a look at the stars as young men, before anyone knew their name; a celebration of their humanity and youth.
"I decided to do a project that expressed my infatuation with male beauty," Gorman explains in the product release, "especially in terms of youth... the portraits don't have lots of backgrounds, they're straightforward. It's really about the person, not the elements. It boils down to the graphics of the individual more than the graphics of the setting."
If you’re not familiar with Greg Gorman’s photography, here’s a look at some of his iconic images, including one of my favorite Tony Ward images, ‘Bent Over.’
