Spotted in Pop Culture! | Steve McQueen by Sid Avery...

         AS A SPECIAL feature on this #TBT (Throwback Thursday), #THEHOTTESTBLOG pays tribute to commanding Hollywood icon Terence Steven McQueen (b.1930 - d.1980) as featured in Vanity Fair's"The 20th Annual Hollywood Issue" March 2014 special collectors edition. Known more casually as "Steve", the King of Cool forms part of a golden trove of actors of a bygone Hollywood to have been photographed by the celebrated Sid Avery (b.1918 - d.2002) of "quiet mastery [and] guileless charm." Steve's iconic photo by Avery is of him rollin' through Nichols Canyon in Hollywood Hills in 1960. Classic photography by Editor-in-Chief C.E.R. captures the beautiful piece in timeless code...









The late Steve is the grandfather of our boy, Steven R. McQueen, who's one of the seven beloved young stars as cast for "A&F The Making of a Star" Spring 2014...



Our famed Bruce Weber beautifully captured
the essence of the McQueen legacy.
