, 2008
Soon after Alexander Gardner's Photographic Sketch Book was published, in 1866, it became the Civil War's best-known visual record and helped define how viewers, then and in subsequent generations, would come to know the war. Gardner's classic also became foundational in the history of American photography, combining, for the first time, words and images in a sophisticated and moving account. This book, written by the art historian Anthony W. ...

This volume presents a selection of paintings, poetry, essays, and ephemeral writings by the Chinese American modernist, Yun Gee (1906-1963), together with essays about the artist. Gee arrived in San Francisco from Guangdong Province at the age of fifteen and within a few years established himself as one of the city's most daring avant-garde painters.

A "family photo album", not of Diane Arbus' family!
I read Jerry Saperstein's commentary of this book and I do agree with him, so please read Jerry's comments, along with mine, to get a better feel for this book called: "DIANE ARBUS:FAMILY ALBUMS". By reading Jerry's commentary I can tell that Jerry, the reviewer, is probably a professional photographer ,which I am not. So Jerry was able to extrapulate more than I did from reading this book. ...

Excellent!
(From Planeta Journal) - For visitors to Mexico City, obligatory visits include the National Palace, Bellas Artes and the Supreme Court -- all places where one can see the work of famed muralist Diego Rivera. His work is found elsewhere, and notably San Francisco, California, where the artist inspired and infuriated a generation of painters. Painting on the Left goes beyond the work of Rivera ...

Anthony W. Lee
Princeton University Press
, 2008
On a June morning in 1870, seventy-five Chinese immigrants stepped off a train in the New England factory town of North Adams, Massachusetts, imported as strikebreakers by the local shoe manufacturer. They threaded their way through a hostile mob and then--remarkably--their new employer lined them up along the south wall of his factory and had them photographed as the mob fell silent. So begins A Shoemaker's Story . Anthony Lee seeks to ...

Weegee and
Naked City
(Defining Moments in American Photography)
Anthony W. Lee,
Richard Meyer
University of California Press
, 2008
Arthur Fellig, better known as Weegee, and his 1945 photography book, Naked City --with its lurid tabloid-style images of Manhattan crime, crowds, and boisterous nightlife--changed prevailing journalistic practices almost overnight. In this volume, two art historians, Anthony W. Lee and Richard Meyer, bring markedly different outlooks on photography and modernism to their discussions of Weegee and his book. Meyer looks carefully at Weegee's ...
Picturing Chinatown: Art and Orientalism in San Francisco

glimpses of a vanished Chinatown
Don't be misled by the choice of the title. The book is not a coffeetable-type photomontage of San Francisco's Chinatown. It is certainly replete with many photographs and illustrations from Chinatown of the 19th century and early 20th century. No doubt to some readers, these will be the main attraction. Revealing in often hazy black and white the details of a vanished and important subculture of ...
Mentoring Relationships in the Life And Writings of Samuel Johnson: A Study in the Dynamics of ...
Anthony W. Lee
Edwin Mellen Press
, 2005
This book explores the phenomenon of literary mentoring and the role that it played in Samuel Johnson's literary and personal life. Because little work has been published in the area of literary mentoring, this study draws upon recent research on business and developmental psychology in order to generate a comprehensive model of mentoring. Synthesizing this model with Levinsonian psychosocial theories of adult development, it explores Johnson's ...
