This review is from: MINOR LEAGUE PB (Photographers at Work) (Paperback)

As a collector of art photography, I am, naturally, interested in young, up-and-coming photographers and their work. I saw a published photograph by Andrea Modica, found out that she lived and worked in upstate New York relatively near me, and then, a short time later, saw this wonderful paperbound collection in the Smithsonian bookshop. These black and white, almost classically composed, portraits of minor league players are brilliant character studies which constantly surprise the viewer. They show friendship and athleticism, a competitive spirit and, yes, eroticism. They are magnificent. Strangely enough, the highly informative interview with the photographer is uncredited. If you are interested in photography and/or baseball, you owe it to yourself to buy this book.
