Remembering Jack
Lowe Jacques
2003
Jacques Lowe's photographs of the Kennedys, taken during his tenure as JFK's personal photographer, have become the iconic imagery of a time that remains vividly etched in the national psyche. Upon Lowe's death, commentators credited his picture with creating the myth of Camelot.
Of Lowe's  forty thousand Kennedy's photographs, only a few hundred have ever been seen, and all of his negatives, which were housed in a vault in the World Trade Center, were destroyed on Sept.11,2001. For this definitive book, fine reproductions have been created from existing prints and contact sheets - in some cases of images he never even printed. This book features more than 600 pictures, half of which are previously unpublished.
