The photo book is entitled Atlanta – America the Beautiful. It contains 95 photos on 97 pages. It is my fourth published book on Atlanta. A Barnes & Noble manager stated “I recommend this book because it is the best pictorial book we have of Atlanta on hand.”

The new book, capturing Atlanta’s remarkable beauty with its images and historical sweep, is even more remarkable as a publishing phenomenon. While the usual lead time for a picture book is six to nine months, Atlanta – America the Beautiful, moved from concept to delivery of images in sixty days, a publishing record. An advantage I had for this project was the large number of updated Atlanta photographs in my image archives. Getting the assignment in December, with a February deadline did not allow for much exterior coverage. A majority of the images came from my image collection which allowed me to concentrate on the attractions that opened this past year.

Fred Stein (1909-1967) was a master of street photography. As an early pioneer of the hand-held camera, he captured poignant moments in the street life of two of the world’s great cities: Paris and New York, where he lived after fleeing from Nazi Germany.
This same immediacy infuses his portraits of the great personalities of the era, among them Albert Einstein, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Marc Chagall. Stein’s images are a vital document of the twentieth century and an important part of photo history. He left behind an existensive oeuvre which this publication presents comprehensively for the first time.

Hi,
I’m thrilled that we are finally launching our new APAG website! It has taken a long time, but the time is now! It is still a work in progress, but I hope you find it educational and interesting if you are handling an archive, or have an interest in photography. We began with 5 original charter members over dinner, and now we have over 130 people in the group, have meetings at the school at ICP. We are celebrating our 10th Anniversary this year, and hope to have an event in the Fall! Please email me with any questions.
Best,
Mary

Moving Walls is an online photographic exhibition sponsored by the Open Society Foundation.

BEYOND GRAND STREET, Brooklyn, New York
In late 1994, I began photographing teenagers from the Puerto Rican and Dominican communities of Brooklyn’s Williamsburg section. Williamsburg is mostly known for its waterfront area and is often referred to as the “new East Village.” Only a few blocks away, beyond Grand Street, is another world where youth face the challenge of growing up without the benefit of the area’s progressive gentrification.
See website to read more, and to see the photos.

“ON SET,” featuring the film stills of photographer Ernst Haas will be available for purchase on Amazon.com starting March 30, 2013.

This volume considers the film-stills of Ernst Haas, one of the most accomplished photographers of the twentieth century, transgressing the borders between static photography and the moving image. Haas worked with a variety of directors – from Vittorio de Sica to John Huston, Gene Kelly and many others.

George Tice: Seeing Beyond the Moment

A documentary film on the life of legendary photographer George Tice by Peter Bosco and Bruce Wodder

Here’s a sneak peak of “Seeing Beyond the Moment,” a documentary about the photography of George Tice.

“Marilyn in New York,” an exhibit of photos by Sam Shaw is now on view in the 42nd Street/Bryant Park subway station and outside the Times Square subway station in New York City.
As part of the Metropolitan Transit Authority’s Arts for Transit program, the exhibit honors Marilyn Monroe 50 years after her death, and is part of the Sam Shaw’s 2012 centennial celebration.
