Episode 02: Robert Hennessey

This spring I traveled to New England to visit with a few of the printers behind some of my favorite photobooks. Robert Hennessey makes printing separations for books. His work is behind some of the best photography books of the last several decades, including titles by Paul Strand, Helen Levitt, Robert Bergman, John Szarkowski, Nan Goldin and Sally Mann. I visited with Hennessey at his home in Middletown, Connecticut to talk with him about his early days as a dye-transfer printer, working in photo-offset printing and carrying a boxful of Cartier-Bresson prints from the Museum of Modern Art home with him on the subway!
