This is not his first book in support of breast cancer research. Made in Canada was his first book, and was released in December 1999. It was a tribute to his friend Donna, who died of breast cancer, and has been his muse since her death. His second book was published in conjunction with an exhibition/auction caledd "Haven" at London's Saatchi Gallery. Proceeds went to The Haven Trust, a London based breast-cancer support-network supported by Prince Charles.
