Michael Abramson looks back at a multi-decade career as a photojournalist primarily working for the Time-Life family of magazines. He has documented a wide range of subjects, from the conflict in Northern Ireland, street gangs in New York, the Wounded Knee occupation, and a barefoot doctor tending to untouchables in Calcutta, India.
His photographic books include Palante, Young Lords Party (reissued by Haymarket); Inside Las Vegas with Mario Puzo; Roy Lichtenstein, Portrait of an Artist; Amy, the Story of a Deaf Girl; and Our Portion of Hell.
REBECCA TREE is his debut novel and it has been a semi-finalist in a previous year’s Amazon Breakout Novel Award competition.
