Call for Reviewers: New Photography Video:
THE PHOTOGRAPHER, HIS WIFE, HER LOVER
We are seeking North America based scholars or professionals who will
write
and submit a documentary film review either to an academic or
professional
journal (print or online), an association newsletter or website, or an
e-mail listserv.
Prospective reviewers should first contact the editor of an
appropriate
publication or other outlet to confirm that they will consider
publication
of your film review. Once you have secured a review assignment, you may
then
contact me off-list at [log in to unmask] to obtain a preview copy of THE
PHOTOGRAPHER, HIS WIFE, HER LOVER.
THE PHOTOGRAPHER, HIS WIFE, HER LOVER
O. Winston Link (1914-2001) was one of America's most
exceptional photographic artists. His meticulously composed, nighttime
images, made primarily during the Fifties, celebrate the last days of
steam
railroading in this country and today are widely regarded as icons of
20th
Century Americana.
Public recognition of Link's unique talent came late in
his
life, however, when more than forty years later books of his photos
were
published. Today there is an O. Winston Link Museum in Roanoke,
Virginia-the
only museum devoted to the work of a single photographer-and his
original
prints sell for thousands of dollars to collectors, while railroad and
photography buffs can purchase O. Winston Link postcards and
calendars.
Behind this success story, THE PHOTOGRAPHER, HIS WIFE, HER
LOVER
(color, 79 mins.) reveals a bizarre tale of deceit, lies, lust and
greed,
one involving the adultery of Link's much younger wife and business
manager,
Conchita, and her imprisonment for embezzling his wealth and stealing
more
than a thousand of his original prints.
