| Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Culled from an extensive, yearlong, nationwide search, this book of photographs from people twenty-five years of age and younger provides a unique and revealing look at how a new generation is seeing and interpreting the world. 25 and Under is an illuminating look at the art and sensibility of young American photographers who have documented worlds they know and imagine with surprising diversity and sophistication. The images range from photojournalist essays to computer-manipulated images, from carefully constructed art pieces to snapshots of daily life. The photographers address world issues and personal concerns, serious matters and trivial ones, and do so with humor and wit as well as anguish and anger. This extraordinary collection of 150 duotones and color photographs allows us to look through the eyes of young people as we enter the twenty-first century, to see their hopes, fears, confusion, and ambitions through the startling and inspiring images they create. 150 color photographs and duotones

Anyone but everyone who is in advertising, design, editorial should have a copy of this book on their desk. Take a cool look and tell me youth and imagry is dead. How often do I see the same old names used in my agency. How often do we condem youth to doing crap?
Great idea, but missing something..... September 4, 1998 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
Great idea for a book, however... sometimes I wonder about what photography schools are teaching people these days.... It seems like people get so caught up with the "latest trick" in photography(ie: computer manipulation...etc..) that it's hard to tell if what they are creating is from the heart. After looking through 25 and Under, I felt a lack of authentic expression. I would love to see another version of the book published with some representation of artists whom have not neccissarily attended the best photo schools in America.
Catchy title, Silly idea! December 15, 1999 5 out of 11 found this review helpful
I'm sure the editors and publishers of this book thought that this was such a unique idea for a photography book! Well, please let these young folks mature a bit and then see what kind of work they can be produced. What will they be doing at age 30? I'll bet most won't be photographers. For the most part there are few pleasant surprises and alot of perdictability. The sad truth is that there are many worthy photographers, with mature work, original ideas and a singular voice who will never have a book published. Why not "25 and Up"!
