HARRY BENSON
Persons of Interest By Harry Benson
Introduction by Howard J. Kessler Celebrating Benson’s over 60-year career and featuring photographs spanning his early days on London’s Fleet Street to his arrival in New York in 1964 with the Beatles, to marching with Martin Luther King during the Civil Rights movement, to being present at RFK’s assassination, to scores of Hollywood and music and sports legends, and right up to the present as the only person who has photographed the last twelve Presidents from Eisenhower to Trump, Benson’s unparalleled magnum opus is to be published following the massive success of the Magnolia Pictures documentary film, Harry Benson: Shoot First (2016).
PHOTOGRAPHY - INDIVIDUAL PHOTOGRAPHERS - CELEBRITY HARDCOVER, 348 PAGES, 11 X 13 INCHES, ISBN 978-1-57687-862-0 $85.00 US/CAN
The award winning photographer Harry Benson CBE came to America with The Beatles in 1964 and never looked back.

With decades spent deliberately being in just the right place at just the the right time, Benson’s photographs and writings of his encounters and adventures are sure to be of broad interest to photography afficionados, history lovers, and people young and old. With subjects ranging from Queen Elizabeth to Amy Winehouse, from Frank Sinatra to Brad Pitt, from Greta Garbo to Kate Moss, from Winston Churchill to Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump, Benson delights us with his images images of the lives of the rich, powerful, and famous. Critic Leonard Maltin said it all when he wrote, “Harry Benson has been witness to the key events of the past half-century and has never failed to capture their most telling moments with his camera.”

DREAMER WITH A THOUSAND THRILLS The Rediscovered Photographs of Tom Palumbo Edited with text by Patricia Bosworth Photographs by Tom Palumbo “He was one of a kind, my Tomaso. Bursting with energy and curiosity, he was always trying something new. Like flying a plane. Or baking bread. He couldn’t swim, but he learned how to water-ski at Lake Tahoe anyway to show off to Yul Brynner’s wife! He once biked from New York to Montauk—that’s over one hundred miles—just to see if he could do it and because then he could walk along a deserted stretch of beach, collect some shells, and then visit his first mentor, the photographer James Abbe Jr., who had a shack on the dunes. “Tom was sexy, ebullient, self-involved. He could be a good guy, bad guy, tough and tender, Jekyll and Hyde. He took pictures of himself constantly. He dressed stylishly—Armani raincoats, expensive scarves flung about his neck. He looked great in hats. He collected sports cars; we used to drive out to the Hamptons late at night when there was no traffic, so we’d go very fast.” PHOTOGRAPHY - FASHION & ACCESSORIES - MONOGRAPHS HARDCOVER, 240 PAGES, 10.5 X 13.75 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-807-1 $75.00 US/CAN
Patricia Bosworth, a contributing editor at Vanity Fair
for over two decades, is an award-winning journalist and best-selling biographer and memoirist. She was awarded the Front Page Award and was a Senior Fellow in Columbia’s National Arts Journalism Program, where she received a grant to research, Jane Fonda: The Private Life of a Public Woman, a New York Times bestseller. Bosworth has taught literary nonfiction at Columbia University and Barnard College, and currently co-chairs the Biography Seminar at New York University. She is at work on a second memoir, The Men in My Life, which picks up where Anything Your Little Heart Desires (Touchstone, 1998) left off, and chronicles her young adulthood and her years as an actress. Bosworth lives in New York City.

--Patricia Bosworth, from the Introduction He lead one helluva life: international travel, photographing beautiful women for the two best fashion magazines in America (the venerable Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar), and learning and perfecting his craft under the watchful, masterful eyes of legends Alexey Brodovitch, Carmel Snow, Diana Vreeland, and Alex Lieberman. His excellent eye and easy and adventuresome spirit meant that he was always game and able to capture whomever was in front of his camera in the most flattering light. People just felt comfortable around Palumbo. That’s why we see models strike the poses he was envisioning, and celebrities like Miles Davis (smiling no less!), Comden and Green, a young Mia Farrow and Jane Fonda, and Jack Kerouac all sit before his camera with utter ease. These rediscovered photographs, celebrated in their time but not seen in decades, are presented here, in book form for the first time ever, by award-winning author and Palumbo’s widow, Patricia Bosworth.

VINTAGE TATTOO FLASH VOLUME 2 By Jonathan Shaw Introduction by Joe Coleman
In Vintage Tattoo Flash Volume 2, Jonathan Shaw unearths more gems from his extensive and world-renowned collection of traditional American tattoo art. Comprised entirely of previously unseen and unpublished work, Volume 2 picks up where the first volume left off—contributing a new and important body of work to the historical record of this outsider art form.
ART - BODY ART & TATTOOING - POPULAR CULTURE HARDCOVER, 216 PAGES, 12 X 10.5 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-847-7 $65.00 US/CAN
Jonathan Shaw is a world traveling outlaw artist,
novelist, blogger, head doctor, anti-folk hero, whorehouse philosopher, legendary tattoo master, and notorious innovator and creator of underground art. Shaw was born in NY to big band legend Artie Shaw and movie star Doris Dowling, and was raised in LA where he learned to tattoo on the legendary Pike boardwalk from old-school California masters. After running with the likes of Jim Morrison, the Manson Family, and Charles Bukowski, he fell prey to heroin addiction and a life of crime. He finally left 1970s Hollywood to travel the world and founded Fun City, the first street tattoo shop in NYC since tattooing was decriminalized in the 1960s. He is the author of Narcisa: Our Lady of Ashes (HarperCollins Publishers, 2008) and Vintage Tattoo Flash (powerHouse Books, 2016).
Electric tattooing as we know it today was invented in New York City at the turn of the 20th century. In the first days of American tattooing, tattoos were primarily worn by sailors and soldiers, outlaws and outsiders. The visual language of what came to be known as “traditional tattooing” was developed in those early days on the Bowery and catered to the interests of the clientele. Common imagery that soon became canon included sailing ships, women, hearts, roses, daggers, eagles, dragons, wolves, panthers, skulls, crosses, and popular cartoon characters of the era. The first tattooists also figured out that using bold outlines, complimented by solid color and smooth shading, was the proper technique for creating art on a body that would stand the test of time. In the over 100 years since then, techniques and styles have evolved, and the customer base has expanded, but the core subject matter and philosophy developed at the dawn of electric tattooing has persisted as perennial favorites through the modern era. While most tattoos are inherently ephemeral, transported on skin until the death of the collector, a visual record exists in the form of tattoo flash: the hand-painted sheets of designs posted in tattoo shops for customers to select from. Vintage Tattoo Flash: Volume 2 represents a selection of over 100 pieces of flash from one of the largest private collections in existence and spans the first roughly 75 years of American tattooing from the 1900s Bowery, to 50s Texas, through the Pike in the 60s and the development of the first black and grey, single-needle tattooing in LA in the 70s. The book lovingly reproduces entirely unpublished sheets of original flash from the likes of Bob Shaw, Zeke Owen, Tex Rowe, Ted Inman, Ace Harlyn, Ed Smith, Paul Rogers, the Moskowitz brothers, and many, many others.

Wonder Girls: Changing Our World is a call to action to help these girls accomplish their important work. Alex Sangster’s sections, the finale of each chapter, tell you how. The book’s Foreword was written by Musimbi Kanyoro, President and CEO of the Global Fund for Women, the world’s largest grant-making organization benefiting women and girls internationally. The Global Fund for Women will receive 100% of the authors’ royalties from this book. Alex Sangster, author-photographer, is Paola’s
granddaughter. Alex is something of a wonder girl herself. She and her sister launched a children’s program at a global poverty conference in Mexico. After conducting FaceTime and Skype interviews with activist girls in 13 countries, Alex wrote the sections which invite readers to support the girls’ groups featured in each chapter. When they started this project, Alex was ten and had been taking pictures for eight years. She captured almost all of the images in the chapters about activist girls in Los Angeles and Mexico. Dr. Musimbi Kanyoro, President and CEO of Global Fund for Women, was born in Kenya. Musimbi traces her passion for human rights, peace, and justice to her Quaker family and community. She is one of 10 children—every daughter given the same educational opportunities as the sons. “I want the same for every girl and woman, no exceptions,” Musimbi has said. In 1998, Musimbi was general secretary (CEO) of the World YWCA and transformed it into a youngwomen-led organization. She was subsequently Director for Population and Reproductive Health at David and Lucile Packard Foundation. In 2014, she was named one of the 21 Women Leaders for the 21st century by Women’s E-News. In 2015, Forbes Magazine named her one of 10 women “power brands” working for gender equality. Musimbi has PhDs in both Linguistics and Feminist Theology. wonder girls

YOGA
The Secret of Life
By Francesco Mastalia In silence, ask the questions. Who am I? Why am I here? Yoga: The Secret of Life is a photo-documentary about the spiritual and physical journey of yoga. Through photographs and text, this fine-art book explores the personal experiences of 108 of today’s leading practitioners and how this ancient practice has transformed their mind, body, and spirit. The photographs for the project are taken on glass plates using the wet collodion process, a photographic technique dating back to the 1850s. With the use of a large-format wooden camera and antique, brass lens, glass plates are hand coated to produce one-of-a-kind ambrotype images. The collodion process transports us to another place, another time. When light and chemistry collide we enter a mysterious world where art and science meet and the alchemy reveals itself. The photographs take on another dimension with the interviews that accompany them. The text provides an intimate and enlightening account of each person’s personal journey.

ONE, TWO, THREE, MORE By Helen Levitt Essay by Geoff Dyer
Known as one of the most talented and least known photographers of her time, a new collection of images from Helen Levitt is always a cause for celebration. In One, Two, Three, More, the reader starts with portraits of solitary figures and progresses through the book to multiple people in each photograph, thereby creating a new visual experience to view Levitt’s incomparable work.
PHOTOGRAPHY - INDIVIDUAL PHOTOGRAPHERS MONOGRAPHS HARDCOVER, 204 PAGES, 8 X 8 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-852-1 $40.00 US/CAN
Born in Brooklyn in 1913, Helen Levitt’s photographs made on the streets of New York have inspired and amazed generations of photographers, collectors and curators. Helen Levitt’s first major museum exhibition was at The Museum of Modern Art in 1943, and a second solo show was held there in 1974. Retrospectives of her work have been held at several museums including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, International Center for Photography, and the Centre National la Photographie in Paris. She has also made four other books with powerHouse Books: Crosstown (2001), Helen Levitt (2008), Here and There (2004), and Slide Show (2005).
Helen Levitt’s earliest pictures are a unique and irreplaceable look at street life in New York City from the mid-1930s to the end of the 1940s. There are children at play, lovers flirting, husbands and wives, young mothers with their babies, women gossiping, and lonely old men. A majority of these photographs have never been published. Other pictures included in this book are now world-famous, now part of the standard history of photography. Together they provide a record of New York not seen since Levitt’s pioneering solo show at The Museum of Modern Art in 1943.
Other titles available by Helen Levitt!
Geoff Dyer’s many books include But Beautiful,
Out of Sheer Rage, The Missing of the Somme, The Ongoing Moment, the novel Jeff in Venice, Death in Varanasi, and the essay collection Otherwise Known as the Human Condition (winner of a National Book Critics Circle Award for criticism).

MEAN STREETS NYC 1970–1985 By Ed Grazda Essay by Gary Hill
In the late 1970s and early 80s, the institutions of power in New York had failed. A bankrupt city government had sold its power over to the banks, and the financiers’ severe austerity programs gutted the city’s support systems.
SUBJECTS & THEMES - STREET PHOTOGRAPHY HARDCOVER, 112 PAGES, 9 X 7.5 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-843-9 $35.00 US/CAN
Edward Grazda is the author of A Last Glance
(powerHouse Books, 2015), Afghanistan Diary 19922000 (powerHouse Books, 2000), and Afghanistan 1980-1989 (DerAlltag, 1990). His work has appeared in The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, Double Take, and Granta and is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Public Library, The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and MoMA, New York among others. He has received grants from The New York Foundation for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, and has been a MacDowell Colony Fellow four times. NY Masjid: The Mosques of New York with text by Jerrilynn Dodds and photographs by Edward Grazda was published by powerHouse Books in May 2002. In 2009, with Jeff Ladd and Valerie Sonnenthal, Ed founded Errata Editions—a publishing company dedicated to making important rare photo books accessible with its Books on Books series. Grazda teaches at The International Center of Photography in New York.
Most of the city’s traditional industries had already left, and those power brokers in charge of the new system retreated to their high rises and left the streets to the hustlers, preachers, and bums; the workers struggling to get by; and a new generation of artists who were squatting in the empty industrial buildings downtown and bearing witness to the urban decay and institutional abandonment all around them. For the tough and determined, the quick and the gifted, the prescient and the prolific, a cheap living could be scratched out in the mean streets. Renowned photographer Edward Grazda began his career in that version of NYC. The black and white photos in Mean Streets, collected here in print for the first time, offer a look at that hardscrabble era captured with the deliberate and elegant eye that propelled Grazda to further success. It’s a version of New York that has been all but scrubbed clean in the financially solvent years that have followed, but the character of the city has been indelibly marked by the scars of those years.

TALES OF ENDEARMENT
Modern Vintage Lovers and Their Extraordinary Wardrobes By Natalie Joos
Tales of Endearment, a companion to the popular website, is a collection of photos and stories by Natalie Joos featuring today’s “who’s-who” of the vintage clothing scene. The men and women that buy, collect, wear, and love vintage come from all walks of life, but share one impartial passion: each one of their “tales” reveals a motivation to celebrate the past and its many inspiring fashions. From 1970s rock and roll t-shirts to Edwardian morning jackets, mod suede skirts to one-of-akind accessories, every single garment in their wardrobes was handpicked with love, gratitude, and a green conscience, and has the power to inspire today’s, and tomorrow’s lovers of style.
PHOTOGRAPHY - SUBJECTS & THEMES - FASHION HARDCOVER, 248 PAGES, 9.25 X 10.5 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-840-8 $50.00 US/CAN
Born and raised in Belgium, Natalie Joos began her career in fashion when she moved to New York in 1997. Armed with a university degree in Political and Social Sciences and a major in Journalism, she first started working as Personal Assistant to writer Glenn O’Brien, followed by six years as Studio Manager for acclaimed photographer Craig McDean. Natalie eventually created her own casting company in 2003. Over the next 10 years she built up a roster of highprofile fashion clients, magazines, and photographers. In 2010 Natalie launched Tales of Endearment, a blog with stories about “friends, vintage, love, style, and life.” She takes her readers inside the homes of vintage-loving women and men and also posts her own looks to showcase a modern mix of contemporary and vintage fashion. Natalie is also a favorite of the street-style photographers—she’s known for her playful use of colors and patterns—and has become a soughtafter influencer. Gradually Natalie made the switch from casting to styling and consulting. She contributes to magazines and has creatively directed successful shoots with Chloe, Loewe, Max Mara, and Diane Von Furstenberg. Natalie lives in Los Angeles and Tales of Endearment is her first book.

Tales of Endearment identifies with the notion that “everything old becomes new again,” and the remarkable people who hold it dear. They are the real-deal vintage connoisseurs, historians, collectors, sellers, enthusiasts, and aficionados. Joos personally chose them from her wide and far-reaching circle of friends in different parts of the international arts and entertainment world because she feels they know how to style vintage clothes in a relevant and modern way. Traveling to photograph them at their homes—or in other inspiring locations—while wearing their favorite pieces, the result is a singular collection of men and women donning yesterday’s colors, shapes, prints, and patterns that have been passed on and reinterpreted as tomorrow’s cutting edge.

When Brooklyn-raised photographer Joseph Rodriguez first debuted his body of work shot in Spanish Harlem in the 1980s, it changed the face of documentary photography. Grit, elegy, celebration, pride, lurking cataclysm—all embedded in the portrait of a place and the people. Now, three decades later, Rodriguez and powerHouse Books are revisiting that groundbreaking series: unearthing huge new caches of images, and re-editing and showcasing the body of work in a beautiful, deluxe monograph, reframing the project as one that pushed beyond documentary into the realm of fine art. Over 30 years since the project began, Spanish Harlem: El Barrio in the ’80s finally brings this unparalleled endeavor to fruition. Spanish Harlem, New York’s oldest barrio, is the U.S. mecca where Puerto Ricans first established themselves in the 1940s. One of America’s most vital centers of Latino culture, Spanish Harlem is home to 120,000 people, half of whom are Latino. Shot in the mid-to-late 80s, Joseph Rodriguez’s superb photographs bring us into the core of the neighborhood, capturing a spirit of a people that survives despite the ravages of poverty, and more recently, the threat of gentrification and displacement. In a now-distant landscape littered with abandoned buildings, ominous alleyways, and the plague of addiction, the residents of Spanish Harlem persevered with flamboyant style and gritty self-reliance. The heart of the work comes from Rodriguez’s intimacy and access. The trust and familiarity he built with his subjects— repeated visits with no camera, then no photographing, then little by little, a peek here, a shot there—allowed him to transcend surface level sheen and exploitation to capture images that reveal the essence of the neighborhood and of the era. That access paired with a sharp eye for detail and composition, and the practiced and disciplined ability to find the perfect moment, led to the creation of an entirely unique and breathtaking narrative. From idyllic scenes of children playing under the sprinklers on the playground, or performing the Bomba Plena on “Old Timer’s Day,” to shocking images of men shooting up speedballs and children dying of AIDS, Rodriguez reveals a day in the life of the barrio in the 1980s.

The Hunt
Navigating the Worlds of Art and Design By Patrick Parrish
In this little gem of a book Patrick Parrish of the eponymous Patrick Parrish Gallery in New York offers advice, stories, gossip, and pointers on how to go about acquiring top quality art and design from sources as diverse as flea markets to the top auction houses in the world. With over 25 years of hard-won experience in the trenches as a picker, a collector, and dealer he tells you what to do, what not to do, and how to negotiate the often-confusing labyrinths that the international galleries, auction houses, and even flea markets can put forth. Hailed by The New York Times as “one of the top dealers in the world for cutting-edge contemporary design,” Parrish holds nothing back, providing a unique outlook into what is sometimes, for good reason, a secretive and cliquish world. Often what you don’t do or say is more important than what you do, and Parrish gives insider perspective on what dealers and auction-house experts want to see and hear from their prospective clients. T Magazine City Guide: “The hodgepodge of art and design in this TriBeCa gallery is like flipping through the best parts of The World of Interiors.” ART - STUDY & TEACHING - DESIGN - ESSAY PAPERBACK, 176 PAGES, 6.2 X 8.4 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-851-4 $19.95 US/CAN
Patrick Parrish is known as the eye behind the popular blog and Instagram feed, MONDOBLOGO. He has contributed to Apartamento, Bad Day, and 01 magazines with his photography and interviews of Murray Moss, Martino Gamper, RO/LU, and Project No. 8. He was chosen by Volume Gallery as one of their “Observers: the intellectuals and tastemakers of design culture” for the book Temperature 2012 published for “The Home Front: American Design Now” a public programming series at the Museum of Art and Design in New York City.

He is a curator, collector, sometimes painter, and always on the hunt for what’s new.

ALI
By Steve Schapiro Text by Jack Olsen In June, 1963, on assignment from Sports Illustrated, peerless portrait photographer Steve Schapiro traveled to Louisville, Kentucky to spend some time with the young Olympicchampion boxer Cassius Clay and accompany him on a road trip to New York City. At 21, Clay was yet to adopt the mantel of Muhammad Ali, but his boastful persona, intelligence, black pride, and sharp tongue were already fully formed. Over the course of their five days together, Schapiro—a master at developing trust and capturing unguarded intimacy on film— revealed both sides of the young Ali: the one side posing and preening for the camera, ever conscious of his image; the other, unguarded and unselfconscious, in candid images of the young fighter at home with his family and immersed in his community and neighborhood.
PHOTOGRAPHY - SPORTS - CELEBRITY HARDCOVER, 88 PAGES, 11 X 14 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-839-2 $50.00 US/CAN
Ali collects the best of Schapiro’s images of the late fighter; many in print for the first time ever. They offer a glimpse of a star on the rise. It is an indelible portrait of the early life of one of the most talented, graceful, controversial, athletic, and influential American figures of the 20th century.
Steve Schapiro is a distinguished journalistic photographer whose pictures have graced the covers of Vanity Fair, Time, Sports Illustrated, Life, Look, Paris Match, and People, and are found in many museum collections. He has published seven books of his work, American Edge (Arena Editions, 2000), Schapiro’s Heroes (powerHouse Books, 2007), The Godfather Family Album (Taschen, 2010), Misericordia (powerHouse Books, 2016), Taxi Driver (Taschen, 2010), Then and Now (Hatje Cantz, 2012), Bliss (powerHouse Books, 2015), and Bowie (powerHouse Books, 2016). Jack Olsen (1925–2002) was an author and journalist, whose 33 books have been published in 15 countries and 11 languages. Olsen’s journalism earned a number of awards including the National Headliners Award and the Chicago Newspaper Guild’s Page One Award. In a page-one review, The New York Times described his work as “a genuine contribution to criminology and journalism alike.”

An Ordinary Day displays photographs set against intimate conversations, presenting the stories of 27 families living with children with rare genetic conditions. Readers will fall in love with each child, share in their struggles and victories, and celebrate the life-affirming spirit captured in every image. The book—featuring interviews, along with unforgettable photographs—presents a transfixing narrative of struggles failed and battles won. These brave children include Ethan, a 7-yearold who is nonverbal, as he learns to sign to communicate his needs; Jonathan, a 9-year-old, as he finally is able to eat with a spoon after many failed trials; and Madison, a 5-year-old, as she takes her first step after years of crawling. These are all tasks that are taken for granted by families and children without these disorders, but are immense accomplishments and triumphs for children afflicted with rare genetic conditions. The intimate portraits in An Ordinary Day will inspire hope, empathy, and gratitude in all of us. Piercing and unforgettable, An Ordinary Day illuminates what it means to be a family.

STREET
New York City 70s, 80s, 90s By Carrie Boretz Foreword by Vivian Gornick
The photographs in Street were taken by Carrie Boretz in New York City from the mid-1970s through the 1990s. It is common knowledge that the city was on rocky ground for many of those years, but these are not pictures filled with drama or strife. Instead, Boretz was always more interested in the subtle and familiar moments of everyday life in the various neighborhoods where she lived, before much of the graffiti was scrubbed away and the city sanitized and reborn as what it is today.
PHOTOGRAPHY - HISTORICAL - STREET PHOTOGRAPHY HARDCOVER, 120 PAGES, 11 X 9 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-842-2 $39.95 US/CAN
After graduating in 1975 from Washington University in St. Louis Carrie Boretz began her life as a New York City photographer a week later, landing an internship at the Village Voice. Over the next decade she photographed for The New York Times Magazine, New York, Sports Illustrated, People, Fortune, and Life. By the 1990s she was shooting almost daily for the New York Times’ DAY beat: one picture that revealed a slice of the city on that particular day. The streets were her “office” but after 25 years of shooting, she traded it in to start life in an actual office and became a photo editor at S.I.’s GOLF, (2003–2013) where she was the only one on staff who didn’t play the game. Street is her first book of photographs. Vivian Gornick born June 14, 1935 in the Bronx, is
an American critic, essayist, and memoirist. She is the author of 11 books; the most recent, The Odd Woman and the City, was published in May 2015. Her journalism has appeared in The New York Times, The Nation, The Atlantic Monthly, as well as many other publications; and she has taught non-fiction writing in MFA programs all over the States.

For so many living in and visiting New York now, it is forgotten or altogether unknown, how different so many parts of the city were during that time. Many of these pictures show the reality of the streets then—where workers, the homeless, the affluent, and tourists all shared the common space every day—providing examples of how one of the greatest cities in the world was one often filled with contradictions. But there is also a timeless element to these images as children still play in the parks, streets, and schoolyards, commuters still face the elements daily as they wait, there are still regular demonstrations and parades, and the whole spectrum of the joys and pitfalls of humanity are still visible most anywhere a person looks. For Boretz nothing was scripted, it all played out right before her. As Patti Smith said, “You need no rationale, no schooling. It’s love at first sight. You see something and you have to capture it. Instinctive, bang, you feel one with it.” Indeed, Boretz doesn’t have a philosophy about shooting other than trusting her instinct: she saw, she shot, she moved on, always looking for moments that made her heart beat faster. It was the continual rush of knowing that at any time she could come upon something real and beautiful. That is why and how she shot and why and how her Street is so special.

LOWER EAST AND UPPER WEST
New York City Photographs 1957–1968 By Jonathan Brand Introduction by Julia Dolan
The vibrant street life and people of New York City’s Lower East Side and Upper West Side in the 1950s and 1960s are presented in this book of black-and-white photographs by Jonathan Brand. A census taker and later an advertising copywriter, Brand chronicled life as he encountered it on his walks through the city. The book offers striking images of New Yorkers engaged in everyday pursuits, from the Bowery to Riverside Park, juice stands and barbershops to the theatre in the streets. With an introduction by Julia Dolan, The Minor White Curator of Photography at the Portland Art Museum, Oregon, this is the first book from a photographer who developed his art alongside many of the best-known in his discipline. Brand’s photographs capture the energy, odd juxtapositions, and intimate moments of life in mid-century New York City. STREET PHOTOGRAPHY - HISTORY - 20TH CENTURY HARDCOVER, 176 PAGES, 9 X 10.75 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-855-2 $40.00 US/CAN
Jonathan Brand has been photographing daily life
since 1956. A native New Yorker and Vermonter, he has also lived and worked in Scandinavia and Portland, Oregon. He developed his photography through study with some of the most accomplished photographers of our day: Richard Avedon, Garry Winogrand, David Vestal, and Bruce Davidson. An acute observer of street life as well as everyday family rhythms, Brand has captured public and private moments in arresting images. Brand’s work and friendship with Winogrand was the subject of a 2014 exhibition, Two-Way Street: The Photographs of Garry Winogrand and Jonathan Brand at the Portland Art Museum in Oregon. Other solo and group exhibitions have been presented from Maine, to Oregon, to Sweden, including at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, University of Oregon; White Gallery at Portland State University; and the Bennington Museum in Vermont. Brand’s photographs are in public and private collections including the Museum of Modern Art, the Portland Museum of Art (Maine), the Portland Art Museum (Oregon), and the Bennington Museum.

Author Katharine Gates, curator of the year-long exhibition KINK at Museum of Sex, has added a new introduction, plus chapters on Cannibal Play (“Eat Me!“), Suburbs of the Foot Fetish, and more.

Looking Beyond the Tattoos By Steven Burton Introduction by Father Greg Boyle
For decades now, tattoos have been potent symbols of Los Angeles gang-life. The black and white tattoos with recognizable neighborhood symbols appear on members’ faces, necks, and all over their bodies, making their gang affiliation immediately clear to whomever crosses their path.

Skin Deep is a photography project that seeks to show the effects of the ongoing gang conflict in Los Angeles. Photographer Steven Burton set out to take portraits of former gang members trying to escape the revolving door of death and prison. For these men and women, the aftermath of gang life is not only carried within, it is also scrawled across their faces and bodies. Skin Deep highlights the impact tattoos have on the way a person is perceived by showing what each participant might look like without them. Utilizing before and— thanks to the advantages of Photoshop—after photographs, these men and women were given a chance to see what they’d look like without their inked armor. After the bare images were presented to each, they were asked to talk about themselves and their families, what the tattoos represent to them, and their aspirations for the future. Burton met his subjects thanks to Father Greg Boyle, the founder of Homeboy Industries in LA, and the entire project is inspired by Boyle’s tireless work helping rehabilitate these former gang members and giving them all a crucial second chance in life. Skin Deep exposes the realities these individuals face when trying to rebuild their lives and re-enter society. As important, the project provokes reconsideration of how society perceives and judges people with tattoos and violent pasts, and seeks to garner empathy for those caught in the crosshairs of gang life as they try to change their futures.

Alexandra Crockett, a musician and jewelry designer,
has been present and active in the metal community since the age of 15 and is currently a doctoral student in the Bay Area. Beginning her idea for the book by doing promotional photos for bands and friends she would cat-sit for, she found an interesting dynamic between men in the metal scene and their cats. The idea for the book formed around giving accolades to local musicians and artists in the metal scene, while also supporting no-kill shelters and their importance for animal rights. The original Metal Cats became an instant international classic upon its release by powerHouse Books in 2014.

MAKE A FACE
By Ricardo Alegria Jr. Illustrations by Anya Kuvarzina Can you make a face as happy as a dancing hippo or as silly as a gaping fish? In this riotous, joyful, interactive picture book, emotions and moods are paired with corresponding animals that “come to life” as the young reader performs prompts given by the narrator. Making a “playful face” sends dolphins leaping from the water, and a “frightening face” reveals a great big elephant that’s terrified of a little mouse. While learning how different facial expressions connect with different feelings and concepts, young readers will be enchanted by how their participation creates magic at the turn of every page. Stretch those faces, and prepare to use your imagination, because some of them will be challenging, as will getting through the book without dissolving into giggles.
INTERACTIVE ADVENTURES - JUVENILLE FICTION - SOCIAL THEMES HARDCOVER, 32 PAGES, 9 X 9 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-850-7 $15.99 US/CAN
Born in El Salvador, Ricardo Alegria Jr. came to New York with a lifelong love of stories, poetry, music, and art. He was proud to become a US citizen, having ardently admired the nation’s values and its abundant opportunity. He now lives in a sunny home in Palm Bay, Florida, part of a region known as the “Space Coast,” where his windows are often rattled by rocket launches and the occasional sonic boom from NASA’s testing facility a few miles down the road. Born in Russia, Anya Kuvarzina always loved “testing out” various pens and pencils at her mother’s stationery shop. She later moved to England at the age of 16, initially to study business, but was introduced to graphic arts almost by accident through an inspiring art tutor and decided to change her career path. After graduating from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, Anya worked as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer, before moving to Cambridge where she now lectures in the Masters program in Art and Design at Cambridge School of Visual & Performing Arts. She also co-founded a mural painting collective, Top Stroke, designing window displays and collaborating on charity art projects in the Russian Urals. Her work has been exhibited in London and Cambridge. As a child, she read constantly, and was enchanted by the animal illustrations of Russian illustrator, Yevgeny Charushin. This is her first picture book.

–Highly interactive: beyond just tapping and poking, as in comparable books. Parents and kids making all kinds of faces together will bring out the silliness and giggle fits. –Educational while being fun: teaches younger readers how different facial expressions signify various emotions, but also connects more abstract feelings and concepts with corresponding animals and actions (wise owl, playful dolphins, winking eyes mirror twinkling stars, etc.) —High energy and fast-paced. —Anya Kuvarzina’s illustrations combine skillful sophistication with childlike whimsy, perfect for those drawn to books by Oliver Jeffers.

BABY TO BIG
By Rajiv Fernandez Baby to Big humorously compares the perspectives of babies and adults through vibrant illustrations. After creating a book of pictograms for his toddler nephew, designer and architect Rajiv Fernandez developed an idea of using iconic images to translate concepts between kids and grown ups. Coupling his trademark graphic style with his love for puns, Baby to Big takes cues from the millennial lexicon and pop culture to unite hip parents with growing little minds. —Crossover appeal as both a board book for kids, and an adult novelty book parody in the vein of Go the F*** To Sleep. While the humor is somewhat edgy it is still safe for young children. —Second book in the series from Rajiv Fernandez. Baby to Brooklyn was his first. —Vivid, minimal illustrations are skillfully and playfully executed, appealing to design-minded parents. JUVENILE NONFICTION - HUMOR - HEALTH & DAILY LIVING BOARD BOOK, 30 PAGES, 5.5 X 5.5 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-826-2 $6.99 US/CAN
Rajiv Fernandez’s background is as diverse as his name. Hailing from the Great Plains of Iowa and Nebraska, his endeavors have taken him all over the world, from Buenos Aires to Bangalore, and finally to Brooklyn where he currently resides as a practicing architect. His professional portfolio includes a bespoke bar in his family’s restaurant and designs for Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. He received a Master of Architecture from Columbia University where his research focused on material studies, graphic representation, and color theory. He is also a trained improviser and can be found performing on the New York comedy circuit. Applying his humor to design competitions, he has won a number of awards from the satirical collective Reality Cues. When not drawing pictures or making people laugh, you can find him daydreaming about winning Wimbledon!

BUT I DON’T EAT ANTS By Dan Marvin Illustrations by Kelly Fry
Koala bears aren’t called eucalyptus-eaters. Panda bears aren’t called bamboo-eaters. Jaguars eat anteaters, but they aren’t called anteater-eaters!” insists a voracious young anteater who will gobble up just about every food except for one: ants! This clever take on the picky eater is full of wry humor and silly puns as the anteater takes us through all the foods he LOVES to eat, while repeating the refrain, “but I don’t eat ants.” That is, until dinnertime when his mom presents him with with a “fiery” surprise. The final punchline playfully depicts the often illogical rationalizations of young, picky eaters in a way that will have kids and their parents laughing. —Parents and kids alike will relate to the main character’s goodnatured stubbornness about what he will and will not eat; a familiar scene for anyone with a picky eater in their family.
JUVENILE FICTION - ANIMALS - HEALTH & DAILY LIVING HARDCOVER, 32 PAGES, 8 X 9 INCHES ISBN 978-1-57687-837-8 $16.99 US/CAN

Andrea and Audrey are picky eaters, Dan and Cooper will try almost anything, BUT THEY DON’T EAT ANTS!
—The frequent refrain of “but I don’t eat ants” will encourage kids to say it along with the anteater, making them active participants as the story is read aloud. —The spare, somewhat wry text and sophisticated, idiosyncratic illustrations will appeal to Jon Klassen fans.

MOKOMAKI
By Satu Kontinen A mommy fox is searching for her lost baby, and asks the Mokomakis for help as she looks—the little birds cheerfully mount a search through the forest, where they meet lots of other creatures, who helpfully join in—and kids can, too!

Mokomaki teaches the building blocks of numeracy at the pre-K level in a fun way. Each spread asks the reader to play a game! A funny and active read-aloud, perfect for making reading a fun event, Mokomaki also encourages early reading practice. “Small birds wandering amidst the other animals offer help, inviting kids to observe, count and add…stylized drawings and bright colors allow one to learn while having fun.” — Culturebox, France TV
