Photography
by Joseph Marshall
This unique book takes a thematic approach to twentieth century photography by focusing on the major developments of the 20-year periods into which the book is divided rather than on individual photographers. Photography 1900 to the Present presents excerpts from a cross-section of writers in the fields of photographic criticism and history on topics relevant to each period with the overview of each section providing a context for the art and culture of that era. The book also includes a timeline to exhibits, books, technical innovations, and professional organizations of each period. It also includes a bibliography of major periodicals dealing with 20th century photography. This enables readers to access current information on contemporary photographers.

From Adams to Stieglitz
by Nancy Newhall
Nancy Newhall, the first curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art, wrote some of the most incisive work ever published on the inner lives of the photographers who shaped the medium. Her friendships with Ansel Adams, Helen Levitt, Alfred Stieglitz, Paul Strand, and Edward Weston, to name just a few, lend her writing a vibrancy rarely found in photography. Opinionated, impassioned, and free with praise and criticism, Newhall brings the reader close to the work and lives of many of photography's pioneers.
