Gordon Parks

by Gordon Parks

Review:
Gordon Parks is a true Renaissance man who has mastered photography, film making, and writing. This collection of poems and photographs resonant words and lessons of his parents to meditations on current events--terrorism, the tsunami, the war in Iraq and Parks' emotional life. I was blown aware by this book and am even considering using this masterpiece in my classroom. A must read for all lovers of poetry and photography.
