New York Magazine has a pretty in-depth article about the financial rise and fall of celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz. I just finished reading the whole thing (8 paginated pages…) and learned a lot about the photographer that simply was never taught in school. I’ve always thought of Leibovitz as the kind of photographer few people ever become — ultra-rich and ultra-glamorous, meeting celebrities left and right. And it’s a bit humbling to know that she suffers the same faults as the rest of us (if not more actually, given her financial debt).

Definitely a good read and a good lesson in financial stability.
