Steve McQueen

Black and white portrait of Hollywood actor Steve McQueen by Kate Westworth

The Bulletproof Rebel

He was the anti-hero Hollywood didn’t know it needed — and couldn’t stop watching. Steve McQueen, the man who rarely smiled but always smoldered, didn’t ask for attention — he commanded it. In an era of polished charmers, he brought grit.

This is the story of the man who did his own stunts, trusted no one, and outran every label they tried to pin on him.
