Linda Benedict-Jones is Curator of Photography at Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, PA.
"[The elements of Michals's work produce] thoughtful and deeply
intimate images . . . Storyteller presents critical essays, early
and recent interviews with the artist, and reproductions of some of
his more important series."
--The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review
"Highly recommended . . . If readers want to treat themselves to
the incredibly playful photographic range of Duane Michals, this is
the volume to see and read . . . Michals delighted his fans and
horrified his critics by combining hand written text with
sequential imagery to tell stories, poems, and deeply personal
musings that explore profound universal themes like sexual
identity, death, religion, and the meaning of life."
--J. Natal, Columbia College Chicago, Choice
"What this collection does best is to illuminate how Michaels'
creative, genre-crossing work has influenced the history of late
20th-centrury photography . . . Michals has spent that last
half-century blurring the boundaries between photography and art,
between fiction and reality, between the personal and universal,
and between artwork and the artists."
--The Gay & Lesbian Review
