The latest release from the Library of Congress (LOC) American Memory Project (last reviewed in the April 30, 1999 Scout Report) showcases the work of writer-photographer William P. Gottlieb. Working for the Washington Post, Down Beat magazine, and Record Changer, Gottlieb photographed and interviewed numerous prominent jazz musicians in Washington, D.C. and New York City between 1938 and 1948, the "Golden Age of Jazz." This exhibit, which features more than 1,600 images, not only captures many of the giants of jazz at their height of popularity and productivity, but also offers insight into Gottlieb's own creative process, with images of negatives, contact prints, and finished products that allow users to trace his work from raw product to publication. In addition, two special presentations on Gottlieb the photojournalist offer selected photos with RealAudio commentary by Gottlieb himself and digitized images of four articles and accompanying photos from 1946-47. Jazz lovers will lose themselves (and track of time) in this marvellous collection.
