Credentials: A self-taught photographer, David Leslie Anthony began his career in 1989 in Los Angeles, going on to live and work in London, Madrid, and Paris. He now divides his working time between Chicago, New York, and Europe. He has photographed for a range of publications such as Condé Nast Traveler, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire, Rolling Stone, and more. Behind the story: "Matt Forté ['Chasing the Dream,' page 98] looks great in suits. He can really pull off a classic-yet-modern look." Favorite spot in Chicago: "Two places: RL Restaurant on Michigan Avenue, and Lux Bar in the Gold Coast. Lux reminds me of bistros in Paris, plus they have all my photographs on the walls. What's more, at the corner table near the bar they have a little brass plate on the wall with my name on it, designating that as 'my' table." His inspiration: "I love road trips, as they help clear my thoughts, and walking the city at night. I see places and situations that often find their way into my photographs. One day I plan on shooting a book of people and places I see on the road."
