"Crawford's takes on female empowerment, nudity and motherhood are revealing. . . In the end, she emerges as an earnest achiever: 'I'd love to tell that hardworking girl with her nose buried in a book that it is OK to live it up a little  bit.'" - C MAGAZINE, "Crawford's takes on female empowerment, nudity and motherhood are revealing. . .

Synopsis
International supermodel Cindy Crawford presents her own personal visual autobiography, the first book to chronicle her life and career, featuring some of her most memorable images. Crawford began modeling as a teenager, first shot by Arthur Elgort, followed quickly with a Vogue cover shot by Avedon. She was the cornerstone of the Golden Age of the Supermodel in the 1990s, and the first supermodel with a distinctive personality and "voice," and blazed a trail in the '90s, seamlessly moving between the runway to other unconventional outlets and moments: appearing in Playboy Magazine (twice!); appearing in George Michael's groundbreaking video "Freedom"; becoming the face of MTV's fashion show House of Style; and inflaming young hearts everywhere with a star turn in the iconic Pepsi commercial, to name only a few. On the eve of her fiftieth birthday, this book includes observations by Crawford about her earliest modeling years; thoughts about various points of her career; her responsibilities as a public figure; her recent transitions into the business world, and her feelings about being a mother, and turning fifty. Photographs span her entire career, beginning from the late 1980s, and include images by almost every top name in fashion photography. Photographers whose work will appear in this book include: Annie Leibovitz, Arthur Elgort, Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, Irving Penn, Mario Testino, Patrick Demarchelier, Peter Lindbergh, and Richard Avedon, among others., International supermodel Cindy Crawford chronicles her life and career, sharing stories and lessons learned, and featuring her most memorable images in this New York Times bestseller. Cindy Crawford was the cornerstone of the golden age of the supermodel in the 1990s. She blazed a trail during that decade, seamlessly moving between the runway to unconventional outlets, such as cutting-edge MTV, Super Bowl commercials, and even Playboy magazine. On the eve of her fiftieth birthday, Crawford looks back, photo shoot by photo shoot, on a remarkable career and various life lessons she absorbed. She discusses her earliest modeling years and learning how to become less self-conscious in front of a camera; trusting her own instincts about creating positive messages about a healthy and strong body image that she knew would reach women of all ages; her feelings about becoming a wife and a mother; and her thoughts about turning fifty and what she would tell her younger self if she had the chance. The photographs span her entire career, beginning from the mid 1980s, and feature unpublished images from Crawford's personal archive in addition to images by every top name in fashion photography, including Annie Leibovitz, Arthur Elgort, Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, Irving Penn, Patrick Demarchelier, and Richard Avedon, among others. A beautifully illustrated series of stories, Becoming is a smart and engaging book that sheds light into the life and work of an extraordinary woman.
