Octavo, original half cloth, illustrated with photographs. Signed and inscribed by Bernstein on the title page. In original dj, very fine throughout. 

Here, in the words of Leonard Bernstein, taken from his letters, his writings, his own personal notes, is a brilliant and unexpected self-portrait of the man, the artist, and the life. Findings is a book of extraordinary discoveries - self-discoveries, musical and personal treasures. Bernstein's poetry, his essays and correspondence, his critical studies of music and musicians from the great masters to pop music and jazz, convey as nothing else can the incredible energy, talent, and genius of the man who more than and other person has confirmed the maturity and the originality of American culture. 

From the collection of Paul McMahon, a critic, photographer and artist who worked for more than 13 years touring with Marlene Dietrich as the icon’s stage manager, announcer, dresser, secretary and escort, and later spent 25 years as an arts and entertainment reviewer and photographer with Gay Community News, Esplanade, Tommy’s Connection, The Mirror, Bay Windows and other publications.
