Sir Cecil Walter Hardy Beaton, CBE Kt (1904 – 1980) was a British fashion, portrait, and war photographer, painter, and interior, stage, and costume designer. Beaton launched his career as a 'society' photographer in 1926 with an exhibition in London that won him an immediate contract with Vogue, where he worked for the next 30 years. Beaton's fascination with glamour and high society prevailed throughout his life and in 1937 he became the court photographer for the British Royal Family. He also became a successful set and costume designer for stage and film productions, most notably My Fair Lady (1956) and Gigi (1958).
