The portrait book features two hundred and twenty eight portraits of Barbra Streisand that were the result of a ten day Portrait Bender that took place in Las Vegas, Nevada. The book has a foreword by Laila Nabulsi, producer of the 1998 film version of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas directed by Terry Gilliam and starring Johnny Depp, Benicio del Toro and Christina Ricci playing Lucy.
