I am an amateur photographer and will always be one. I do love a book of photographs - especially ones like this. Comedians and photography - what a combination! This book is so much fun. Seeing a series of pictures of the late great George Carlin reminds me yet again how biting and funny he really was. The photos are amazing. They make you laugh yet again just thinking his routines. Grace gets such great faces. They are looking at themselves in the mirror, grimacing, rehearsing and more. Two of them are standing around in shirt, tie and no pants! One of them is sitting in a room with a circular light that forms a halo around his head. Inspired! Some are staged, others are not. All are wonderful.
