Thompson in the 1960s and '70s, Ralph Steadman provided that era with a signature visual style: satirical, strung out, and suspicious of authority. A new book, <i> Ralph Steadman: A Life in Ink, </i> reveals the U.K.-based artist as more than just a counterculture documentarian. His sketches of London street life show a knack for capturing character in a few quick, precisely chosen pen strokes.... At 84 he still relishes turning his sharp pen on contemporary politicians." --<b><i>Smithsonian magazine</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ralph Steadman is a Welsh-born, UK-based artist who has been creating groundbreaking art for over 60 years. He has published many books and has been featured in numerous publications, such as <i>Rolling Stone</i>, <i>Vanity Fair</i>, <i>The Guardian</i>, <i>the New York Times</i>, and many more.
