Cats and photographers, with their shared watchfulness and curiosity, were made for each other. The romance between cat and camera is charmingly apparent in this selection of more than 100 pictures by photographers, photojournalists, and humble snapshooters alike. There are rich, regal cats, like Cecil Beaton's, and poor cats, like the street cats of Weegee; cats in action, like George Balanchine's cat executing a grand jete for its master, and cats in repose. This delightful collection begins with the first daguerreotypes and continues to the present day -- including such greats as Erwitt, Atget, Kertesz, Cartier-Bresson, Weston, Cunningham, and even Avedon. In addition to the images, five engaging essays explore the relationship of the cat to the camera. Elegantly designed, The Cat in Photography is an inspired photographic history and a wry and intelligent gift for cat lovers.

Bela Kalman often speaks of his "third eye." For more than 55 years he has used this intuitive, inner lens to see beyond the range of ordinary, everyday vision. With his two eyes Kalman looks. With his third eye he sees. Van Deren Coke describes Kalman's photographs as "a meld of history, art and cultural investigations. He gets on film all kinds of subjects as he travels over the world giving us armchair tourists a sense of intimacy with places and people we may never see firsthand."The wide variety of photographs in this lavish book include homages to many well-known photographers, providing a form of the history of photography through one photographer's eyes. Bela Kalman was born in Hungary in 1921, and earned a significant reputation in his field of fine photography. In October 1956 Kalman fled Hungary and settled in the United States where he worked as a professional photographer.
