About this title

Synopsis

Bernard Gotfryd was a staff photographer for Newsweek magazine for more than three decades from the mid-1950s to the late 1980s. These are his portraits of many of the most influential and important people of the day, including novelists, poets, politicians, film stars, performing artists, painters, and sculptors. Usually given only a limited amount of time, Gotfryd made a virtue of necessity and relied on natural light only, without a flash and with few props. As a result, his style is clear, simple, and direct. The portraits themselves are honest and revealing.

Store Description

I opened my first bookstore in Davis CA in 1985, and started selling online in 1998. I've sold about 50,000 books online, with fewer than 100 returns. I take book descriptions seriously--it's an art--and photos, if not initially available, need only to be requested. I've been away from abebooks a few years, but now am back, with vastly increased shelf space, and plan to double the inventory (while maintaining the erstwhile quality). Non-fiction is my bailiwick, the more specialized and obscure the better. So, we share an interest in specific knowledge, and I will cater to your sphere of knowing as only a 40-year book nerd can.
