IRA RESNICK

This finely printed and bound volume is an expanded, more personal version of Ira Resnick s critically acclaimed photo book The Seventies: A Photographic Journey, featuring twice as many celebrity photos and anecdotes.

In images and words, Resnick re-creates his path through a decade of tremendous change, in the world and in himself - from film school at NYU, through travels in Israel and Canada, to the cultural ferment of Mill Valley and the glamour of Hollywood. Along the way, Resnick s work as a professional photographer brought him in contact with the leading personalities of his time:

• Musicians like the Rolling Stones, Stevie Nicks, and James Taylor
• Actors and directors like Sissy Spacek, Warren Beatty, and Martin Scorsese
• Comedians like Steve Martin, Gilda Radner, and Bill Murray
• Athletes like Muhammad Ali, Billie Jean King, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
• Politicians like Jimmy Carter, Jerry Brown, and Bella Abzug

Resnick s photographs of these iconic figures - many never seen since their original publication in magazines like Rolling Stone, People, and Us - will fascinate anyone with an interest in popular culture. And his personal journey will resonate with anyone who came of age in the 1970s.
