Publisher's Synopsis
Peter Beard was a larger-that-life icon who pushed the boundaries of art and scandalized international high society with his high-profile affairs. The scion of several old WASP fortunes, he was by instinct an adventurer, and the more dangerous the escapade, the better: whether he was hunting big game in Africa, ingesting epic quantities of drugs, or pursuing the most beautiful women in the world. When Beard died in 2020 after mysteriously disappearing from his Montauk home, he remained an enigma to even his closest friends. Journalist and author Graham Boynton comes this intimate portrait of a man Sir Mick Jagger called "a visionary."
