Philippe Halsman's Jump Book

by: Philippe Halsman
What else can I say? It's lightweight material (but you knew that), but this book documents a bygone era in a unique and unforgettable way. There are many images in the book that alone are worth the purchase price. In particular I like the photo of all of the Eisenhower brothers caught in the midst of cracking up over a good joke.

Philippe Halsman: A Retrospective - Photgraphs From the Halsman Family Collection

Halsman offers more than the standard potrait photography we have grown accustomed to. He offers a fresh perspective to faces we have seen countless times, by offering us an intimate look into thier lives. For instance, how many people would think to photograph Monroe pumping iron, or Richard Nixon jumping up and down like a little boy. It is this inginuity that allows the audience to appreciate a different side to these celebrities. I am a longtime fan of Halsman's work, and i would strongly recommend that anyone intersted in the stars of the 50's -70's to get this book.
