Notice for Leiter fans >>
« on: June 05, 2018, 12:17:52 AM »
Hello friends,

If you have been waiting for Saul Leiter's new book to become available, your wait is over. I have no idea of the run size but if you're on the fence you might consider acting quickly while you can.

Enjoy!

A short interview with the book’s editor, Margit Erb:

I only came to know about the book’s publisher, Steidl Verlag, last year, after reading a profile of Steidl in the New Yorker.  Steidl is a hero and his company is a great advocate for photography.  According to Erb, Leiter enjoyed late-in-life widespread recognition (and financial success) only after Steidl published a book on Leiter’s early color photos.
