There Are A Lot Of Ways To Talk About The Life Of A Photograph. You Can Talk About The Afterlife Of A Photograph, And In The End I Talk About That, With The Richard Prince Picture. But Mainly, What I Dedicated The Book To Being About Was How Photographs Begin Their Life, And Where They Begin It. And They Begin It With The Photographer's Imagination And Instinct And Experience.

I Now Want To Be A Photographer Of My Time, And Our Common Culture.

For Example, In My Dorm, At The University Of Kentucky, I Had The Only Camera. I Don't Think Anyone Came To College With A Camera, Other Than Me.

That's Who Comes To My Workshops. I Jokingly Tell My Students That The Class Could Be Called "your Photographs: Better."

In My First Class At The University Of Kentucky, My American Literature Professor Came In, And The First Sentence Out Of His Mouth Was "the Central Theme Of American Literature Is An Attempt To Reconcile What We've Done To The New World." Wrote That Down In My Notebook, And Thought, "what Is He Talking About?" But That's What I Think About Now. The New World And What We've Done To It.
