Roy Stuart is an American photographer and film director[1][2][3][4] who lives in Paris.[5] His photographs blend glamour photography and contemporary art[2] with an emphasis on female models[3] and BDSM aesthetics. His photography books have been published by Taschen, the first three volumes of which sold 250,000 copies.[1][2] He has directed the movies Giulia and The Lost Door.[3]

Life and work

Stuart lived in New York in the late 1970s and early 1980s,[6] working as an actor[5] ("his only role of interest was a bit part in “The Godfather Part II,” playing an American soldier back from World War II"),[5] musician and in a colour photo lab.[1] He moved to London where he became a photographer[1] and began taking erotic photographs.[5] He later moved to Paris.[5]

Philippe Garnier, writing in Libération in 2002 said of Stuart's publications by Taschen, "Roy Stuart is quickly becoming a locomotive for this atypical editor."[n 1][1]
