{"product_id":"billie-holiday-at-sugar-hill","title":"Billie Holiday at Sugar Hill","description":"In 1957, New York photojournalist Jerry Dantzic spent time with the iconic singer Billie  Holiday during a two-week run of performances at the Newark, New Jersey, nightclub  Sugar Hill. The resulting images offer a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse of Billie with  her family, friends and her pet chiuhuaha, Pepe; playing with her godchild (son of  her autobiography's co-author, William Dufty); washing dishes at the Duftys' home;  walking the streets of Newark; in her hotel room; waiting backstage or having a drink  in front of the stage; and performing. The years and the struggles seem to vanish when  she sings: her face lights up. Later that year, Dantzic photographed her at the second  New York Jazz Festival at Randall's Island, in colour. Only a handful of the photographs  in this book have ever been published.","brand":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Ltd","offers":[{"title":"New - Hardback","offer_id":32679083475029,"sku":"9780500544655N","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/9780500544655.jpg?v=1598611881","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/billie-holiday-at-sugar-hill","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
