Low Profile is the autobiography of Frank Hermann, author, publisher, one-time director of Sotheby's and founder of Bloomsbury Book Auctions. Starting out as a book designer at Faber (publishers of TS Eliot), the author goes on to share his experiences working for a firm who published Beatrix Potter. From this exposure, Hermann began to write his first works. He soon published a long history of art collecting in England and then was asked to compile the history of Sotheby's. Subsequently, he became an advisor and then later director of Sotheby's overseas operations. He later founded his own publishing company and antiquarian book auction house. Co-published with the Plough Press.
