I had always thought that when I was around 84 and Robin was 80 we could collaborate on a book about the golden years of his career where he could look at my photographs and reminisce about the events and his feelings at the time. Unfortunately; that book was never to be . . . .Photographer Arthur Grace first met Robin Williams in April 1986; at a comedy club in Pittsburgh where Williams was working to polish what would eventually become his award-winning special “Evening at the Metrdquo;. The two hit it off immediately; and thus blossomed a close friendship that carried them through their increasingly successful careers. Told through a series of stunning photographs of Williams taken by Grace over the course of this decades-long partnership; Robin Williams: A Singular Portrait offers a touching and up-close look at the real Robin Williams—the manic and happy; the pensive and weary; the engaged and disengaged; a true portrait of one of Americarsquo;s greatest comics and most beloved actors.For the millions of people around the globe that Robin Williams has touched; these images; more than 150 photographs; a glorious mixture of stunning color and resonating black and white presented in exhibit format; will be something to embrace and cherish; not simply because of their exclusivity; but because of their intimacy and their honesty.
