Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Near Fine. First Edition. Autograph; Illustrated with 200 portrait photographs by Diana Walker. Inscribed and signed by the author on title page. As a Time magazine photographer covering the White House through four presidential administrations, Diana Walker enjoyed incomparable access to the wor…ld's major movers and shakers. Going behind the scenes and photographing her subjects over the course of years, she captured Presidents and their families in wonderfully candid moments and world leaders in the course of momentous events. Walker's way of engaging people and inspiring their trust results in portraits that are refreshingly spontaneous and open-giving viewers the feeling that they've met each subject personally. Many of those portrayed are notables in politics, industry, science, entertainment, and the arts-from Ronald Reagan to Steve Jobs; from Lillian Gish to Princess Diana and Prince Charles; from Mikhail Gorbachev to Hillary Clinton. Throughout the book, photographer and subjects narrate many of the 200 portraits, reminiscing about the experience and providing background for the moment or event. The result is a delightfully layered story, both visual and verbal, told from multiple points of view. Its wide appeal will capture readers who are interested in great photography, famous figures, and the political and cultural life of our times.; Signed by Author.

Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Fine. Near Fine dj. First American Edition. [a tight, unread copy, with both book and jacket in almost perfect condition, the only blemish being a slight age-toning to the jacket flaps]. INSCRIBED to Academy Award-winning screenwriter Daniel Taradash "with all good wishes" and SIGNED by the author on the fr…ont endpaper. Thomson, a film critic/historian/biographer, imagines the off-screen lives of characters in dozens of classic movies and weaves them all into a single "plot," an impressive feat of meta-fiction that positively revels in unexpected and sometimes outrageous connections and cross-connections. The book's central characters -- or at least the frequent focal point of what is essentially a kaleidoscopic narrative -- are George and Mary Bailey (the characters played by Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed in Frank Capra's over-exposed classic IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE), but an amazingly far-flung number of characters are woven into the narrative, from Jake Gittes (Jack Nicholson in CHINATOWN) and Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro in TAXI DRIVER) to more obscure (but no less beloved by movie fans) figures as Max von Mayerling (Erich von Stroheim in SUNSET BLVD.), Hank Quinlan (Orson Welles in TOUCH OF EVIL), Lars Thorwald (Raymond Burr, the murderous neighbor of Jimmy Stewart in REAR WINDOW), etc. One of the real kicks of the book is how the author forges links or liaisons between the characters -- such as Noah Cross and Norma Desmond having been lovers in the 1920s, or that the Richard Gere character in AMERICAN GIGOLO was the illegitimate son of Norma and Joe Gillis. In lesser hands, all this contrivance might have seemed terribly forced, but because of Thomson's encyclopedic knowledge of movies and stars (his "Biographical Dictionary of Film" is an indispensible reference work), it all kind of makes sense, although the book is not without its surreal aspects. (But to be honest, if you have to ask who Noah Cross and Norma Desmond are, this book probably isn't for you.) Signed copies are uncommon. Signed by Author. Illustrated by (dj photo) Walker Evans (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Format is approximately 5.25 inches by 7.25 inches. [16], 260, [4] pages. Illustrations. Signed by the author on the title page. The work is divided into three Parts: Summer Rain at the Blinker Light; The Man in the Buick Eight; and Just as I Am. Each Part contai…ns several chapters. Clyde Edgerton (born May 20, 1944) is an American author. He has published a dozen books, most of them novels, two of which have been adapted for film. He is also a professor, teaching creative writing. After graduating in 1966, he entered the Air Force and served five years as a fighter pilot in the United States, Korea, Japan, and Thailand. After his time in service, Edgerton got his Master's degree in English and soon after, he also earned a doctorate. He decided to become a writer in 1978 after watching Eudora Welty read a short story on public television. As of 2011 he was a professor at the University of North Carolina. For his seventh novel, Clyde Edgerton returns to the setting of his own childhood to introduce us to the good God-fearing citizens of small town America at mid century--good ole boys, good little boys, little old Ladies with loaded shot guns, and an ancient dog who predicts the weather--and to tell the story of what happened back when rootless amorality met up with deep-rooted moral flexibility. . We all miss the slower pace and simpler problems of the '50s, and no one brings them back better than Clyde Edgerton, a writer described by the New York Times as "Eudora Welty meets Mark Twain." And no one exposes the secrets of self-righteousness more cheerfully than he does. Derived from a Kirkus review: As amiable and charming as all his novels, Edgerton's latest about small-town life brings together his usual cast of drunks, church-going Baptists, and southern eccentrics, all of whom encounter the Devil in the form of a traveling ne'er-do-well. This devilish Jack Umstead (a.k.a. Rusty Smith, a.k.a. Delbert Jones, etc.) even dares to pretend he's Jesusâ"the true sign of the Antichristâ"in deceiving the sick and elderly Dorothea Clark. Neither Dorothea nor her two sisters (who never married and are thus known as the Blaines), who run a chicken- and ice-store, were ever quite right, and they still can't understand why Dorothea went off and married that vulgar Clark fellow, Claude T. of the gold ring and Cadillac. Most of what we learn is through the eyes of little Stephen Toomey, the coddled and asthmatic son of Harvey and Alease, Alease herself a righteous and pretty woman not immune to Umstead's blandishments. Everyone in little Listre, a town that ``looked settled, ripe, timid, kind of stupid,'' is touched by Umstead's evil presence. He seduces the dreamy-eyed Cheryl Daniels, the sister of Stephen's best friend, Terry (Terry is additionally providing a spiritual crisis for the married preacher, Mr. Crenshaw). Umstead also pals up with Stephen's drunk Uncle Raleigh, a vet who lost an arm during WW II. But Umstead bides his time for his big scoreâ"he hopes to rob the Blaine Sisters when the next lightning storm comes, since that's when they abandon their home for their sister Dorothea's. Little Stephen, who wants to cuss, drink, and smoke like the men of Listre, is lucky enough to witness Umstead's bloody end. And he discovers that it's a lot more enjoyable than the readings from Aunt Margaret's Bible Stories, a volume that provides parallel texts throughout the novel. Jokes about breasts and flatulence punctuate a lighthearted treatment of good and evil and the simple world of those who are weak but seek salvation. An always enjoyable read. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Walker Evans (Jacket photo), and Martin Ettlinger (illustrator).

Soft cover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: No dust jacket as issued. 1st Edition. Price is net to all; promotional discounts do not apply. SHIPPING NOTE: Due to size and weight (e.g., multi-volume sets), additional shipping fees apply (calculated at checkout). First edition, first printing. Signed by Friedlander. Boxed s…et of six volumes sharing the following format: Soft cover. No dust jacket as issued; contained in a printed paper-covered slipcase. Photgraphs by Lee Friedlander. Set 240 pp., with 191 duotone plates. 9 x 8-1/2 inches. Lee Friedlander's work is widely known for transforming our visual understanding of contemporary American culture. Known for passionately embracing all subject matter, Friedlander photographed nearly every facet of American life from the 1950s to the present. From factories in Pennsylvania, to the jazz scene in New Orleans, to the deserts of the Southwest, Friedlander's complex formal visual strategies continue to influence the way we understand, analyze, and experience modern American experience. Friedlander's work continues to influence photographic practice internationally, in part due to the heightened sense of self-awareness that is a trademark of so many of his photographs and in part because of his ability to embrace wide-ranging subject matter, always interpreting it in an elegance that hadn't existed prior to his work. New in publisher's shrink-wrap (opened only for signature). From the publisher: "In the 1960s and '70s, Lee Friedlander (born 1934) developed his signature approach to documenting the American "social landscape": deadpan, structurally complex black-and-white photographs of seemingly anything, anybody or anyplace that passed in front of his lens. But as he was making his name as a documentary photographer capturing the look and feel of modern American life, he was also photographing his closest friends, a practice he has continued throughout his long career. A slipcased set of six paperback books, The Mind and the Hand presents the photographer's intimate portraits of six of his best friends taken over the past five decades. The subjects, each presented in their own separate volume, comprise a veritable who's who of one of America's most fertile periods in photography: Richard Benson, William Christenberry, William Eggleston, Walker Evans, John Szarkowski and Garry Winogrand. Each volume begins with a relevant quote from its subject." Signed by Author.

Book is a stated first edition, and the photographer/author has signed on the half-title page. Book has 144 illustrations, is unmarked, tight, and bright. David Campany and Lauren Groff (M…irror Venus) have provided texts. Gift/collectible quality. From the book's verson: "A photo-dialogue on Florida past and present. Sunshine state. Swampland paradise. Tourist aspiration. Real-estate racket. Refuge of excess. Political swing-state. Sub-tropical fever dream. With forms of nature and culture found nowhere else, Florida is unique. It is also among the most elusive and misunderstood of places. Anastasia Samoylova (born 1984) has photographed Florida on intensive road trips. Walker Evans (1903-75) photographed it over four decades. Twisting the visual clichés, these two remarkably discerning observers convey Florida's dizzying combination of fantasy and reality. Evans witnessed modern Florida emerging in the 1930s, with its blend of cultures, waves of tourism, stark beauty and blatant vulgarity. He photographed there until the 1970s, making Polaroids that still feel contemporary. Samoylova inherits what Evans saw coming. With intelligence and humor, she picks her way through the seductions and disappointments of a place that symbolizes the contradictions of the United States today. In Floridas, photographs by Samoylova and Evans are presented in parallel, weaving past and present, switching between black-and-white and color imagery, all complemented by an essay from editor David Campany and a visionary short story by celebrated novelist and Florida resident Lauren Groff.".

This first edition was limited to 2000 hardbound copies. Out of print. Scarce. Fine. From the publisher: "The Little Screens is a revered and influential body of early work by Lee Friedlander, but it has never before been brought together in its entirety. The book's title refers to the television screens housed in motel rooms and other nondescript rooms of anonymous character spread throughout the country during the 1960s. Each screen vividly transmits images of popular culture icons, political figures, or minor celebrities of the times. The environments are iconographic ghost-filled rooms filled with bland furniture -- rooms without personality, rooms that could be, and are, anywhere and everywhere. The Little Screens and their environments weave a narrative of a peripatetic photographer moving through the landscape of 1960s America, and the melancholy, yet sometimes comic quality of life lived on the road. They provide a look at the 1960s as so many people saw it: beamed into their living rooms. The book's preface was written by the legendary Walker Evans after he saw the photographs in 1963."

Each of the four limited edition portfolios contained fifteen photographs by each artist, representing their distinct visions that can be described in the words of Walker Evans as 'oddly refreshing, unselfconsciously striking, and unpredictably adventurous.' This publication honors the unique collaborative project that was to become a touchstone in the history of photography." Signed by Author. Signed.
