As creatively innovative as John Zimmerman was with a camera, this marvelous book shows that the people John photographed then (1950-1975) still possess the same relevance and humanity that we see in the faces of the world today. -- Frank Deford, writer and NPR commentator Every photographer I knew aspired to be John Zimmerman. It was that simple. He was as good as there has ever been. Photojournalism at its very best. -- Neil Leifer, photojournalist and filmmaker John G. Zimmerman was a brilliant photographer and a technical genius. But that's not always what makes a photograph unique; it's always the light, the photographer's eye, and the heart. John felt the soul of the people, their joy, their pain, their style, and their right to be treated properly. That's all you can ask, to treat people with respect. John was a master of that, and of the photographic moment. -- Walter Iooss, Sports Illustrated photographer Now, more than ever, showing what it means to be an American, is critical. Words can be labels; John G. Zimmerman's photographs are lives. His pictures highlight the aspirations of Americans, showing unifying goals and a belief in American democracy that transcends race, religion, economic status and country of origin. His black and white photographs show that America is not black and white, but nuanced, complex and rich in the diversity of its people. -- Gail Buckland, professor, author, and curator John G. Zimmerman passed away in 2002, but he left behind a masterfully photographed chronicle of 20th century American life. Carmel Magazine
