SFGate: Daily Dish : Annie Leibovitz signs deal to clear debts

Annie Leibovitz signs deal to clear debts

Celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz has signed a deal with a financial firm which will help clear her debts without selling the rights to her pictures.

The snapper has suffered severe money problems over the last few years and is said to owe $24 million to bosses at Art Capital Group, who recently threatened legal action after she allegedly failed to adhere to the terms of the agreement.

Leibovitz, who has famously photographed stars including Demi Moore and Miley Cyrus, was reportedly planning to sell her entire art collection, as well as her homes in New York, to help settle the debt, but the lawsuit was withdrawn last year.

She has now signed a deal with private equity firm Colony Capital to help manage her money woes and keep her career on track.
