Description: "Stars in My Eyes is a collection of celebrity portraits. Internationally known artist Don Bachardy made portraits from life depicting the actors, writers, artists, composers, directors, and Hollywood elite that he and his partner Christopher Isherwood knew. He then made detailed notes about these portrait sittings in the journal he has kept for more than forty years.

The result is a unique document: we enter the mind of the artist as he records the images and behavior of his celebrity subjects during their intense collaboration with him."--BOOK JACKET.
