		<description><![CDATA[A woman conquers a man&#8217;s world.
It&#8217;s hard to imagine being successful at any one of Lee Miller&#8217;s callings, let alone all three.
I don&#8217;t mean dilettante dabbling.  I mean as good as it gets.
Famous model, surrealist artist, war photographer.  Miller (1907-77) did all of these with aplomb and was at all times in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For Beaton fans.
An exact contemporary of Cecil Beaton, the great Welsh photographer Angus McBean chose to specialize in the theater whereas Beaton chose the more lucrative world of fashion and film.  Yet a viewing of the less famous McBean&#8217;s work shows a level of sophistication and skill Beaton could never equal, whether it&#8217;s in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another Parkinson for the library.
If I make mention of Norman Parkinson yet again it&#8217;s for the simple reason that my mother-in-law, a woman of fine taste, gave me her copy of Parkinson&#8217;s first book, Sisters under the Skin, for Christmas.

The sensationalist cover notwithstanding, the contents show Parkinson at his very best. Simply stated, Norman Parkinson [...]]]></description>

Angel Rizzuto lead a troubled life. Despite substantial wealth he spent the last years of his life in a seedy single room apartment in New York, whence, from 1952 through 1966, he emerged daily to record the city and its people. Returning, he would put up the window blind, get out his chemicals [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A great LIFE photographer.
By 1965 television had replaced LIFE as the primary source of news for households.  LIFE folded soon after.  Yet the weekly, created by Henry Luce in 1936, once enjoyed a circulation of over 13 million, and it was during those years that John Phillips worked for the magazine.

When it comes to fashion &#8211; the great years of fashion through 1960, that is &#8211; the interested student can indulge in one stop shopping with no fear of missing anything of importance.

One of the simple, yet sublime, pleasures in life is to stroll past a bookcase and be rewarded with some gem long forgotten.  A moment later and you are on a trip to a place unknown, basking in California&#8217;s late sun.

Few artificial creations can equal the joy of a beautiful garden.

So many photography books take themselves so seriously that it&#8217;s always a pleasure to come across one that is not only very funny, but is also in glorious, over-processed, high contrast color.  All of which works well in this droll piece of work by Jeff Mermelstein.

The undistilled, unalloyed pleasure of a new book is one that remains a perennial source of excitement.  But until now I confess I have never opened a book with such an immense grin on my face as this one.

The words &#8220;wit&#8221; and &#8220;photography&#8221; are rare companions when the photographer in question is German, but Regina Relang is an honorable exception to the rule that has it that humor has yet to be discovered in Germany.

I make it a habit, as summer approaches, to pick a photography book from the bookcase for relaxation on the patio in the afternoon.  What struck me as rather funny the other day is that I found myself perusing the shelves much as a wine drinker might select [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Book review

Touring the ancestral manse the other day, it occurred to me to see which photographers&#8217; work graced its many walls.  Well, I found only three.  Dozens of my own pictures (I like my work, so there), one signed by Lucien Clergue and two others.  And those two are by the great [...]]]></description>

You know how you remember the first of anything?  The first book you read, the first music you heard, the first glass of wine, and so on?  Yes, that too.
Well, the first fashion photography I remember was by the French master Guy Bourdin.  Sometime in the early 1970s when I had [...]]]></description>

No finer example of Chim Seymour&#8217;s photography can be found than this wonderful picture from the set of Funny Face, with a very young Richard Avedon showing Fred Astaire the ropes.
One of the founders of Magnum, the apochryphal story has it that Chim and HC-B met on a tram in Paris, with HC-B asking [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Book review

Pure joy.
That&#8217;s what I&#8217;m feeling, looking at Robert Doisneau&#8217;s magnificent pictures of Paris.
It&#8217;s impossible to adequately convey the pure joy of his photography.  So many scenes from the Tuileries, goodness.  A setting that elevates all those who traverse its perfection.  I&#8217;m not well travelled enough to pontificate on its world standing [...]]]></description>

It may be the most extraordinary creative partnership in the history of photography.  The master, George Hoyningen-Huene and his pupil, companion and life long friend, Horst P. Horst (actually Horst Bohrmann, but as an American resident at the time of war, you would have changed your name too).

		<description><![CDATA[Book review

While Cecil Beaton was the &#8216;go to&#8217; photographer at British Vogue in the 1930s, his counterpart at French Vogue was the aristocratic and temperamental George Hoyningen-Huene.  (Cecil was temperamental but, try as he might, no aristocrat).
Where Beaton&#8217;s tastes tended to the frou-frou, Huene&#8217;s were solidly based in Greek classicism, as the wonderful pictures [...]]]></description>

A photographer whose vision matches that of the best, but with none of their technical limitations, Ilse Bing deserves the renaissance her work is currently enjoying.  Like Cartier-Bresson she did her best work in the thirties and, like him, insisted on using the small negative Leica, even using it exclusively in her studio [...]]]></description>

Taken in moderation, a sip here, a nibble there, these sixties diaries of Cecil Beaton are a blast to read.  A sort of cross between the National Enquirer and the Tatler.  Indiscreet, vicious, bitchy, funny, warm spirited, mean, generous, spiteful, the full panoply of human emotions, both good and base, is on [...]]]></description>

This slim volume has been on my bookshelf for some ten years now, a gift when it was first published.  Amazingly, it remains in print, which says something for the appeal of these light-as-air sunny snaps from a great French amateur photographer who did his best work in the 1930s.

Photographer Thomas Eakins also hailed thence.

I have long enjoyed Richard Gere as a film actor, not least for his light touch and excellent timing.  For whatever reason, he seems to have fallen out of favor with US audiences, yet finds himself more popular than ever in Japan, where [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A flashback.

An email from a friend had me rushing to my bookshelves &#8211; sadly now dispersed over three rooms owing to their seemingly organic growth &#8211; in search of my Victor Skrebneski picture book.  &#8220;You have to look at these&#8221; was the general thrust and, in fairness, I had probably not looked at &#8216;Victor [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A master of lyrical monochrome.

There is so much to like in the Aperture book &#8216;Josef Sudek &#8211; Poet of Prague&#8217; that it&#8217;s hard to know where to begin. Sudek (1896-1976) spent nearly his whole life in Czechoslovakia.  From 1940, inspired by contact prints from large negatives he devoted himself to this way of working, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rich beats the alternatives any day

One of the best things to be said about Slim Aarons&#8217;s book Once Upon a Time is that there is not a cat in sight.  Lots of dogs and a few horses, but no felines.  For that hooray!  The rich like their pets obsequious and subservient.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A master of the modern Western US landscape photograph.
If Eliot Porter&#8217;s nature photography appeals to the romantic side of one&#8217;s personality, Jack Dykinga&#8217;s appeals to the other extreme.  A more formal, studied approach.   Classical, if you like.  That sounds boring on paper but the reality is that his work is astonishing. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A standout from the crowd of Manhattan picture books.
Wall Street Christmas by Robert Gambee was published in 1990, some three years after I had taken Horace Greeley&#8217;s advice and moved west to Los Angeles.  It is a wonderful piece with superb photography and text by Gambee &#8211; a monumental task.  The book has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everything looks worse in black and white
Smirking with ridiculously self-satisifed glee at a joke he has just told to the wife of one of his flunkies, Hitler reaches for the cookie bowl.  His pasty faced complexion contrasts strangely with the tanned, Aryan health evidenced on the woman&#8217;s beaming face, her gingham dress replete with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A book that should be in your collection.
I wrote of my love of Juan Buhler&#8217;s street photography a few days ago.  What prompts revisiting the subject is that I have just taken delivery of Juan&#8217;s limited edition book, Street Photographs and want to recommend it to you.
 
Some 6&#8243; x 8&#8243; in size and [...]]]></description>
