Description: This is a collection of Master American photographer Adger Cowan's predominantly black-and-white images taken over the past 40 years. The book follows his photographic evolution from Navy photographer to apprentice of Gordon Parks to the documenter of 1960s Harlem to a high-profile Hollywood portrait photographer with a client list that included Al Pacino, Jane Fonda, Katherine Hepburn, and Mick Jagger. His images embody 1960s documentary style, street journalism, portraiture and self-portrayals, still-lifes, and experimental work.
