'HEAVEN' Chronicles the Rise and Fall of Professional Skateboarder Lennie Kirk

Photographer Dennis McGrath releases his first book HEAVEN, which documents the life and times of American professional skateboarder Lennie Kirk, who started his skate career at 16 years old in the early ’90s and is currently serving 13 years in jail. Designed by Ed Templeton, the 134-page hardcover book is a visual project that spans 20 years-worth of work and is a compilation of old letters, photographs and passages from those close to the fearless Kirk that give testament on the skater who became infamous for his wild antics and troubled life. Supporting photography is provided by the likes of Patrick O’Dell, Jonathan McGrath, Keith Hufnagel and Gary Van DeGriek. Only 1,000 limited first-edition copies are being released. You can purchase a signed copy of HEAVEN here and here for $40 USD.
