James sat down with the Creative Director of the Al Hirschfeld Foundation, David Leopold, to discuss the artist's life and legacy through four drawings.

Both are fiercely ambitious, but when Keld’s career takes off and Sheila’s doesn’t, professional jealousy and an affair have a devastating effect on their marriage."
