After living in several different agency accommodations he eventually found himself senior resident and de facto handyman of a hostel-style apartment provided by one of the world s most prestigious modeling agencies. Over a period of six years he lived with more than two hundred and fifty young emerging male models, each aspiring to become one of the few highly paid icons that adorn the world s fashion magazines, billboards and couture catwalks. During this time Will Anderson produced a body of photographs of life in the various apartments. He has used some of these photographs in his book Apt.301, to represent typical aspects of the transient environment in which young male models start their careers. Some of their stories from interviews are included in this book. About the Author Will Anderson (b.1972 Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England) graduated with an Honours degree in Graphic Design from Bath College of Higher Education. He won several prestigious awards for his graduating work including a Royal Society of Arts National Design Award. His photographs have been exhibited in England and the USA.See less »
