Van Der Zee, James

Illustrated by
Keith Mallett.
Loney skillfully depicts Harlem Renaissance photographer VanDerZee's lifelong determination to capture the beauty of the people around him. Alongside the conversational text, Mallett's illustrations depict the artist at work; yellow and brown tones lend themselves to the nostalgic feel. Back matter includes an informative afterword that shows how VanDerZee achieved his goal with techniques that were novel for their time. Reading list. Bib.
