Conceived expressly for Yoko Ono as a gift between friends on the occasion of her eightieth birthday, See Hear Yoko is a visual portrait of an icon of contemporary American cultural history, from her days with John Lennon through to the present. Legendary rock and roll photographer Bob Gruen was welcomed into the lives of John Lennon and Yoko Ono during their years in New York City, when Gruen served as their personal lensman, and he continues to document Yoko today. Approached by his friend Jody Denberg, an Austin rock radio mainstay who had logged twenty-five years of interviews with Yoko, Gruen collaborated with him to create an extraordinary birthday gift. In this breathtaking volume, Gruen has selected more than three hundred classic color and black-and-white photographsaccompanied by text of Yokos insights gleaned from Denbergs many hours of interviewsto illuminate the intimate story of Yoko Ono at the height of her fame as a woman, wife, mother, and avant-garde artist who keeps creating because, as she notes, thats who I am. Yokos role as a peace activist and artist underscores the enduring legacy of the era. See Hear Yoko reveals a modern woman in love, in ascension, in grief, in joy, and in peace. Lavish and beautiful, mirroring the deeply personal design of the original volume given to Yoko herself, See Hear Yoko brings into focus an extraordinary woman, and one of the most memorable periods in modern history.

Yoko Ono is the most interesting and inspiring person I know and Ive always - photo 2
Yoko Ono is the most interesting and inspiring person I know, and Ive always felt very lucky to be a part of her life. We met in 1971 shortly after she came to New York with John Lennon, and we soon became friends. We shared many laughs in good times and were there for each other in hard times. I traveled to Japan and Europe with Yoko and saw her as an artist and performer. Over the years Ive taken many photographs of her at public events and in private moments. When Sean was born they called me to take the first photos of him to send to their families, and in introductions Sean has referred to me as his uncle.

It makes me very happy to be considered part of the family. For Yokos eightieth birthday Jody Denberg suggested that we could gather my favorite photos and combine them with quotes from his interviews with her to make a special book just for Yoko. I thought it was a great idea. This is the book we made. After we gave it to her, Yoko called and said she liked it so much that she wanted us to publish it. I must thank Hanna Toresson for creating the design of this book and Richelle DeLora for her extensive work researching my files and Jodys interviews to select Yokos quotes and the caption information.

BOB GRUEN, NEW YORK CITY, NOVEMBER 2014 I am a native New Yorker and turned thirteen shortly after Yoko Ono and John Lennon moved to the Big Apple together. They were a ubiquitous presence in the city during my teenage years, the first half of the 1970son TV, in the newspapers, and at political rallies and concerts. I never met either of them in those days but admired them from afar. I loved their albums. While Johns records were globally revered, I felt like Yokos musicas well as her art and writingswere personal communiqus. It was an illusion but a rewarding one.

After moving to Texas for college and becoming a broadcaster and a journalist, I was finally able to snag my first interview with Yoko, in 1984. Over the next quarter century we spoke more than a dozen times: for magazines and radio programs, on the phone and at the Dakota, in studios and in a hotel room. She always illuminated our conversations with candor and patience. Any fan of Yoko Onos is familiar with Bob Gruens definitive images of her, and I was no exception. After he agreed to collaborate on this project as a gift for Yoko, he sent me files of countless photographs of her, and I matched quotes from my transcripts to some of his pictures. I hope the result you are holding ultimately brings two key Yoko concepts to the forethat she always lives life as art, and that a dream you dream together is reality.

John and I just met and sort of like two cars crashing, we just did it.

But of course I was doing that kind of stuff before, but doing it with John was a different experience. Hear why and how he plays his guitar... his guitar and my voice having a dialogue. Thats something that Id never done before.
