Madonna: Into the Groove : An Intimate Portrait of the Queen of Pop (HB)

In 1985, the world finally took notice of Madonna, and she met Ken Regan, one of the most versatile professional photographers of the 20th century. This trove of his beautiful, timeless images, most never before published, follows her through an array of unforgettable moments - studio poses, bedroom positions, fitness routines, onstage performances - highlighting her raw, magnetic sexuality. The accompanying text by Rolling Stone writer Tomas Mier brilliantly traces the development of her signature style. He shares exclusive new interviews with producer Nile Rodgers, choreographer Brad Jefferies, stylist Maripol, and others. He offers fresh insights into Madonna's whirlwind romance with Sean Penn, why the Mondrian session became the most successful shoot of Regan's career, and even how the infamous Penthouse and Playboy photos affected her performance at Live Aid, where, behind the scenes, Regan shot her at the center of one of the most remarkable group photos of all time. This definitive collection of their work together captures in detail exactly how the Queen of Pop grabbed the world's attention and never let go.
