Each photographer made a living by concentrating on a specifi c aspect of the craft, but in doing so transcended his or her livelihood to become recognized for more than the type of images that he or she created. They all had a distinct “style,” creative approach, dedication to the craft, point of view about them- selves and the world, and, for many, a unique ability to vigorously project themselves to a wider audience and clientele. These interviews were conducted during a seminal period in the transi- tion from fi lm to digital photography and, as importantly, from print, maga- zine, and book reproduction to worldwide distribution on the Internet. They reveal only hints of what was to come, and while a few interviews here touch on those who embraced this distribution, processing, and printing change wholeheartedly, albeit during its infant years, most were as yet to be infl uenced or persuaded by it. In a sense, these artists and reporters and recorders of the world around them worked prior to or right on the cusp of these monumental changes. These interviews can be thought of as historical documents, especially when Downloaded by [New York University] at 05:47 09 August 2016 photographers such as Carl Mydans or Gordon Parks talk about the FSA (Farm Security Administration), or when O. Winston Link describes in detail his lighting setups for his amazing record of the end of the age of steam railroads. As such they become resources for study, and hopefully inspiration, for photographers today. A number of the interviews reveal the state of the photographic world from the middle to the end of the twentieth century. They give us a snapshot of a world gone by, although the dedication and sense of craft revealed throughout are as important now as they were then. As you read through this text, you can also get a sense of how these photographers came up “through the ranks” and what it took for them to achieve their goals and vision. viii Introduction What for me is most impressive about this collection is not the debate about fi lm versus digital, or how technology affects the creation and publication of work. (Too much debate about these matters today recalls the old joke about Hemingway and Faulkner arguing about their favorite typewriters.) Rather, they go to the heart of the craft of photography, the overriding importance of vision and point of view, and the sense that the work was something more than a way to make a living, that it was a calling in which those engaged in the work understood what came before and how their work might fi t into a legacy of photographic images that would survive into the future. This was not a pretentious stance, although some photographers are not shy about themselves or their work, but rather one that came from a sense of visual literacy, of understanding what came before, and how photography could affect and change the world around them. One of the interesting aspects of the work of these photographers was their “curation” by editors, art directors, corporations, gallery owners, publishers, and at times organizations concerned with propaganda or social causes. These editors were the gatekeepers of what got published and what didn’t in sometimes very competi- tive fi elds. Although one could ascribe various motives to this culling and curating of images, there is no question that it took an understanding of that infrastructure to get work published. These interviews include an underlying revelation of those environments and how each photographer dealt with them and, to me, describe the medium from the point of view of those who worked within and, sometimes, outside it. Today, the Internet allows publication of every image made, in stark con- trast to how photographers dealt with the distribution of their work and how they made their living in the past. But this book is not meant to be a lament for an age gone by but more a celebra- tion of the work and times and struggles of the photographers who helped defi ne it. As I read through the interviews I am struck by the thoughtfulness and sense of purpose, the craft and the transformation of activity to intention of each of the photographers interviewed. All of them have left us (and in many cases still create) bodies of work that will come to represent their profound infl uence on photogra- phy and on the understanding of who we are by revealing how we looked, acted, and interacted in times gone by.

The 1000 square foot house had a main bedroom that served as our darkroom, and a living room, which was the gallery. The Guadalupe Barrio was a wonderful mixture of old Santa Fe and young Santa Fe – with many artists finding the neighborhood welcoming them. Paul Caponigro lived on the corner; a few years later, Walter Chappell moved next door. Getting to know both of them was a gift and life- changing. There was never a time that we spent with Walter that we didn’t learn something significant about life, nor was there a time spent with Paul that we didn’t learn about seeing. And, through both of them, we gained insights into their teacher, Minor White.

Hilkert, a longtime neighborhood fi xture, was one of more than a dozen local residents run down and injured by an out-of-control driver on August 29. It was a bizarre incident that landed the neighborhood in the national news. Hilkert was returning home from his massage early that Tuesday afternoon when he saw a man lying in the street at Sutter and Steiner. “He was moaning and groaning, and I thought, ‘Oh, there’s some poor fellow who’s down and out,’ ” he says. Others were helping, so Hilkert continued on his way. “I was into the crosswalk, when suddenly this car came right at me — and I joined the other fellow, on my back, in the street,” his glasses and hearing aids scattered, Hilkert recalls. Neighbors and bystanders quickly gathered. “0 en one of them screamed: ‘My God!

  • CHERIE HISER – “She Is One of the Most Vital Persons of Our Time”
    CHERIE HISER – “She is one of the most vital persons of our time”.

In Santa Fe, New Mexico she founded the “Center of the Eye Collaborative Workshops and Gallery”, followed twenty years later in Portland in 1996 with “PhotoWorks NorthWest”, another innovative non- profit photography program. Cherie’s work has been exhibited and published widely from small presses to National Geographic magazine. Her prints are in numerous public and private collections She has received many honors including a residency at the Visual Studies Workshop in New York; a grant from the Polaroid Foundation to work with hospitalized mental patients and photography.

    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.
