“We tell ourselves stories in order to live.” RIP Joan Didion.
Born in Sacramento, California, much of Didion’s early work, including the essay collection, dealt with the counterculture, social change, and Hollywood glamour of her home state. Though, in later works, Didion would turn her attention to America’s political and military involvement in El Salvador, the rising power of the Cuban exile community in Miami, and the American political system writ large.
Later life also saw Didion’s rise into a near mythological and much-revered figure in culture. She starred in a 1989 Gap ad with her daughter, photographed by Annie Leibowitz. She later also starred in a 2015 ad for the fashion house Céline shot by Juergen Teller that both cemented designer Phoebe Philo’s particular vision and Didion’s own eternally cool caché. A 2017 documentary calledwas a hit for Netflix.
