This is a wonderful book on the Marin Headlands, a former military base and now a park, across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco. I collaborated on this book with writer Paul Metcalf and photographers Mark Klett, Larry Sultan and Mike Mandel. I designed and typeset the book and we all participated in conceptualizing it, picking photos and putting it all together. I sometimes show up as "the" author only because my name is first alphabetically, but it was a group project. Paul assembled the text based on his own interviews, observations and a collage of previously published material. Larry and Mike found a lot of historical and documentary photographs and Mark took some wonderful pictures and re-photographed some of the same pictures Larry and Mike found from the same locations to document the changes in the landscape.
