Deadheads book - Aging Gratefully
At my first Grateful Dead show in the 80's, I was as drawn to the fans (the Deadheads) as I was to the music. I started taking formal portraits of Deadheads in the parking lots of Midwest concert venues in the 80's and 90's. Around 2015, with the help of social media and word of mouth, we started finding and re-photographing them and with the help of David Gans, collecting their oral histories all to be included in the book, "Aging Gratefully". Anticipated release in fall of 2025. See info on how to get your copy below.
