Book Synopsis
The first comprehensive overview of an influential American photographer and filmmaker whose work is known for its intimacy and social engagement

Trade Review
"Danny Lyon’s career would make a great bio-pic. The New York City photographer, who, at seventy-four, is the subject of the terrific survey 'Message to the Future,' has led an improbably adventurous life . . . [and] he has remained a maverick throughout his long career—an irritant to the system and an ally to the outcast."—Vince Aletti, New Yorker

"[This] retrospective, accompanied by an extensive catalogue . . . is the most comprehensive showing of Lyon’s career. . . . His photographs depict the outsiders from within their own worlds; his camera is lodged in the center, aiming straight for the heart."—Rebecca Bengal, Vogue.com

"A picture of a creative life informed by a probing intellect and a passionate eye."—Christopher Lyon, Bookforum
