Comprised of essays published primarily in The New Yorker from the 1970s to mid-90s -- covering photographers Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Weston, Richard Avedon, William Eggleston, Robert Frank, Diane Arbus and more -- Diana & Nikon is the complete collection of Janet Malcolm's writings on photography.

"I admit to an acolytes devotion to Malcolm, to a thirst for everything she writes. There's a thrill to reading her that comes from the moments when her writing breaks ever so subtly with the decorum of journalistic worldliness to hint at something personal, painful even, about Malcolm herself." —photographer and writer Moyra Davey, Long Life Cool White

Project Notes:

First published in 1980 and then expanded and reissued in 1997, Diana & Nikon has again fallen out of print. If an interested team were to form, their first step would be to contact the author to determine copyright status and seek her involvement in the project.
