The 36 photos are all in the recently published book titled LETTERATI. The author is Paul McCarthy of Colorado. The books is published by ECW Press of Toronto and is in brick and mortar stores as well as on line from Amazon, B & N and possibly others. All photos were taken by me except for the one of me with Adam Logan at the 1996 Nationals - which was taken by Larry Sherman. These are all under my copyright and "right-click" protected - so if you tried to print them you would only get the captions. Should anyone want a print or prints for any reason, email me annsan.nyc.rr.com. NOTE: the order of the photos here has nothing to do with their order in the book. Paul ordered photos from me of specific people and the "scenes" from the old days and I dug up what I could from my stock of over 30 years. Yes, you have seen some of them before - a number have been in other publications and some were in the film WORD WARS

Techie note for photographers: Most photos were taken with Tri-X film, though a few were scanned from color prints or slides. only the photos at the 2007 BAT and the 2005 Nationals were shot with a Canon digital camera. The only editing done in photoshop was simple conversion to digital black and whites, "spotting" and some cropping. In otherwords, these are un-manipulated images.
