Hidden Master features a stunning collection of photography from the 1930s-50s, uncovering the less-known life of celebrity photographer George Platt Lynes: his gifted eye for the male form, his long-term friendships with Gertrude Stein and Alfred Kinsey, and his lasting influence as one of the first openly gay American artists.
Sam Shahid has been leaving his mark on the world of fashion and advertising for four decades and counting. He has helped many brands become internationally recognized, including Calvin Klein in the 1980s, Banana Republic in the 1990s, and later Versace, Perry Ellis, Gucci, and Valentino.
