Southernmost Art And Literary Portraits: Fifty Internationally Noted Artists And Writers

Southernmost Art and Literary Portraits features eighty-five black-and-white studies, many of which are being made public here for the first time. This collection is the first gallery of portraits to be paired with revealing quotes from the subjects themselves, along with biographical profiles. Recognizing fifty important American artists and writers and raising awareness of their work, the book offers fresh insight, intimate remembrances, and exclusive information of wide-spread and lasting interest. Thought provoking and often surprising, this work includes fourteen influential artists, twelve Pulitzer Prize winners, a Nobel Prize Laureate, seven recipients of the National Book Award, and eight of the world's best-selling authors. A landmark late-twentieth-century pictorial archive, the project represents twenty years of enterprising and meticulous work by Jimm Roberts, a nationally recognized photographer.
