About This Item
New York: Aperture, 1999. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Signed by Mary Ellen Mark on the half-title. The first collection of her remarkable images realized in the United States since 1963, with a poem by Maya Angelou. Mark's unflinching yet compassionate depictions of prostitutes in Mumbai, homeless teenagers in Seattle, and mental patients in a state institution in Oregon made her one of the premier documentary photographers of her generation. Quarto: 151 p. Original burgundy cloth binding, with silver titles. Light fading and wear along the extremities of the dust jacket; else very good or better.
