# Event Details - **Event Name**: BookTowne Welcomes Timothy White, Author of Life Through My Lens - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 04 Oct, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Sun, 04 Oct, 2026 at 05:00 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: Join BookTowne for a discussion with celebrity photographer, Timothy White, on his memoir, Life Through My Lens, October 4 @ 4PMAbout this EventABOUT THE BOOKFor more than forty years, Timothy White has moved through the beating heart of pop culture – film sets, recording studios, backstage corridors, desert roads – capturing the faces that defined an era. Life Through My Lens is the story behind those photographs, a candid memoir that reveals the journey, the heartbreaks, and the raw moments that shaped the images now collected in the memoir's companion, Life Through My Lens: Monograph.From wrecking motorcycles in the desert with Brad Pitt, to Julia Roberts glowing under studio lights, to Aretha Franklin laughing between takes in Detroit, to flying airplanes with Harrison Ford, to cutting up on set with Robin Williams and his four-decade friendship with Whoopi Goldberg, White’s photographs became cultural memory. But the life behind the lens was far more complicated. As fame swirled around him, he navigated ambition, romance, fractured relationships, and the weight of long-buried family secrets. When his father’s sudden health crisis forced him to stop running, White found himself confronting a truth he’d avoided for decades: the story of the man behind the camera was every bit as dramatic as the ones he was hired to document.In these pages, White turns the focus of his lens on himself and his private life for the first time. Told with honesty, humility, and a surprising tenderness, Life Through My Lens invites readers into the experiences that informed the photographs – what he was feeling, fearing, chasing, or losing at the exact moments those images were made. Together, the memoir and monograph form a rare two-sided portrait: one in words, one in light.“After a lifetime of photographing my heroes,” White writes, “I realized I needed to understand the story of the person holding the camera.”A deeply human memoir paired with an iconic body of work, Life Through My Lens offers both the thrill of celebrity storytelling and the emotional depth of a man finally seeing himself clearly.ABOUT THE AUTHORTimothy White is widely recognized as one of the most important figures in contemporary photography.
