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...
