Connell, Will. About Photography. New York, T. J. Maloney Co. (1949). 4°. 64 S. mit teils doppelblattgr. Abbildungen. Illustr. Orig.-Kartonumschlag. First edition. – „This little book is written for the knowledgable… The book will probably do nobody any good, because those who need it won’t understand it, and those who understand it won’t need it…“ (W. Connell in his introduction). – „Will Connell (1898-1961) was an influential photographer, teacher, and author in Southern California known for his often-satirical “modern pictorialist” style, commercial photography work, and mentorship of a generation of photographers. … Connell’s glamour shots of stars such as Myrna Loy, as well as his growing body of art photography, reveal pictorialist influence, and his work was often exhibited at salons and exhibitions throughout the United States. In the 1930s, Connell began working as a photographer for magazines including the Saturday Evening Post, Colliers, Time, and Vogue, started teaching photography at Art Center College, and continued work at the Los Angeles studio he opened in 1925. Connell spent the rest of his life in Los Angeles, teaching, judging work, producing commercial work, and writing, notably, his „Counsel by Connell“ column in US Camera, which he authored for 15 years“ (National Museum of American History, Washington). – Rücken leicht berieben, gutes Exemplar.
