Sharing the same passion for sports cars, Steve McQueen (1930-1980) and William Claxton became friends very early in McQueen's career and remained close until the actor's untimely death. Claxton followed the various incarnations of McQueen (daredevil, motocross and sports car driver, movie star, seducer, family man, etc.), and each time managed to capture a different aspect of the mysterious personality of mcqueen, the good-bad boy. Claxton's photographic talent and sensitivity were a perfect match for the multi-faceted actor's character. This is the real Steve McQueen, immortalized through the lens of a true friend.
