After a very varied career as a still photographer shooting everything from underground press and rock-n-roll to movies and television, TFT Alumnus Kim Gottlieb-Walker ’68 has just finished her first photo book. "Bob Marley and the Golden Age of Reggae" will be published this month from Titan Publishing/Random House. The book features almost 200 rare and never-before-seen photos of Bob Marley and other reggae greats.

Bob Marley Magazine reports:

Traveling across Jamaica and in exclusive meetings in Los Angeles, Kim photographed most of the major reggae artists, musicians and producers of that legendary era, including Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Toots Hibbert, Burning Spear, Jacob Miller, Third World, "Scratch" Perry and many others, as well as shooting hundreds of photos of Bob Marley — in his home in Jamaica and in Southern California – in interviews, performances, photo sessions, backstage at LA's Roxy (where Bob met George Harrsion) and relaxing behind the scenes.
