Photographed by Vogue alumna Claiborne Swanson Frank, American Beauty is a tribute to the women who symbolize our country today--from Jenna Lyons to Lisa Mayock, Solange Knowles to Lily Aldridge--each of whom possesses an original blend of grit, grace, glamour, and gravitas that make them fitting exemplars of kaleidoscopic American beauty.Featuring over 100 portraits, alongside texts by Genevieve Bahrenburg, a foreword by Vogue photography director Ivan Shaw, and a preface by author Lesley M. M. Blume, American Beauty captures today's bright young things in a survey of quintessentially American women that echoes far beyond its pages.
