Portraits | Steve McCurry

#FaceOnCover #MayMontage I had a mini version of this coffee table book in the 90s, and flipped through the portraits until the binding disintegrated. Like most people at the time, I was captivated by “Afghan Girl” and her striking green eyes, but even more than the 1984 National Geographic cover shot which was used for the cover of this Phaidon collection (left) I remember the controversy surrounding the photo in the 90s.👇🏼

IndoorDame It came out McCurry didn‘t know who she was, and he went back several times to look for her. He finally found her identity in 2002 and took a second series of photos (right) that stuck with me even more strongly. 2y

Happy birthday Jim Henson, on what would‘ve been your 86th birthday! Thank you for making this world a better place!

Quote from the beginning of this book:

“When I was young, my ambition was to be one of the people who makes a difference in this world. My hope still is to leave this world a little better for my being here.“ - Jim Henson

More love for this wonderful book. It was challenged in 2015 for containing images of poverty & for downplaying American Exceptionalism.

Boots says, “Hiss!!!” to book bans!

Challenged by a Wisconsin school board member in 2015 for 1) Containing images of poverty 2) Downplaying American Exceptionalism.

Shameless self-promotion: We will be discussing this book on my podcast Muppet Profiles. 😊

Kerrbearlib @LibrarianRyan Yup. So ridiculous. 🙄 2y
