Presenting her breathtaking photographs alongside revealing interviews with those who knew her best, this volume is the first attempt to put Vivian Maier's work in context and create a moving portrait of her as an artist. Though she created more than 120,000 negatives during her lifetime, only a few were ever seen by others. Shortly after her death in 2009, the first group of her unseen photographs--gritty with humanity and filled with empathy and beauty--were shown online. What followed was a firestorm of attention, catapulting Maier from previous obscurity to being labeled as one of the masters of street photography. Her work has appeared in numerous museum exhibits and a feature-length documentary on her life and art has already been planned. Features more than 300 duotone photos printed on 105# paper with flood varnish.

From Booklist
*Starred Review* Excitement over the mysterious “nanny photographer” went viral after a selection of Maier’s commanding black-and-white photographs were displayed online shortly after her death in 2009. Her never-before-seen work was discovered after the contents of her storage lockers were auctioned off because she couldn’t pay the bills. Now the brilliant and intrepid photo reclamation and writing team of Cahan and Williams (The Lost Panoramas, 2011) tell Maier’s deeply moving story. They conferred with everyone they could find who knew Maier and chose 300 galvanizing photographs—most unprinted, many undeveloped—from the tens of thousands she shot. We learn that Maier, of French and Austrian descent, was born in New York City in 1926, raised in the French Alps, traveled the world with her camera, and settled in a Chicago suburb in 1956. She lived frugally while working as a nanny and caregiver, continually taking pictures of her young charges and their world and of Chicago’s see-it-all streets, composing urban tableaus of penetrating wit and empathy. Maier was “painfully private,” outspoken, unconventional, gutsy, and compassionate, and her long-secret photographs evince a profound clarity of vision and intent. Cahan and Williams compare Maier to Emily Dickinson, and her life and work do speak to our most cherished sense of what art is and why it matters. --Donna Seaman

An Essential Book for Vivian Maier Fans
By D. Frost
If you love Vivian Maier's work, you'll want this book. The photographs are beautifully reproduced and the authors have gathered the most details about Maier's life we have to date in their biography of her.
So why four stars instead of five? As wonderful as this book is, this collection of Maier's photographs doesn't impress me quite as much as the ones in John Maloof's book, "Vivian Maier: Street Photographer", despite the fact that the reproduction quality of the latter isn't as good. There's a higher percentage of really stunning work in Maloof's book, and those are the photographs that really made Maier an overnight sensation (albeit posthumously). I'm sure a lot of that is attributable to the fact that Maloof is in possession of over 100,000 of Maier's photographs, whereas the Jeffrey Goldstein Collection, which is the source for this book, consists of 20,000 images. Maloof had the luxury of choosing from a much larger stash, and it shows.
But don't get me wrong, the photographs in this book are terrific, and this book richly deserves a place in any serious collection of photography monographs. Someday, after Maloof and Goldstein are finally finished cataloging all of Vivian Maier's prodigious output, we may be lucky enough to get a huge multi-volume retrospective that comprises both collections. In the meantime, this and the Maloof book are the ones to own.

Vivian Maier...who knew?
By Robin
Another fascinating collection of Maier photos well worth waiting for after Maloof's 'Street photographer' from 2011. This selection is from Jeffrey Goldstein's collection of about sixteen thousand negatives, 225 rolls of film and fifteen hundred color slides (so expect more books and I'm especially interested in how she handled color).
The nine chapters have photos from 1949 to the mid-seventies and so they are a good sampling of the things that caught Maier's eye. The three chapters that I thought worked the best are: 'America' with forty-seven photos of Los Angeles and New York; 'Maxwell' has twenty photos of this Chicago street market; 'Downtown' with thirty-four taken around the Chicago Loop area. These are photos of Maier at her best, capturing the bustle of big city streets with energy and compassion. One thing missing from Maloof's book was an explanation of who was Vivian Maier. 'Out of the shadows' fortunately fills in a lot of detail about her life and interest in photography and each chapter gets a short essay about the photos that follow.
It is inevitable that this book is compared to Maloof's and like another reviewer I prefer his book. It has a much better selection of photos and nearly everyone shows one of Maier's strengths: her ability to create perfect framing. 'Out of the shadows' has many more photos but because of this I thought it also included several that seemed, perhaps, not worth including. The child asleep in a car, page 123, street light on page 272, some lit windows floating on a black square, page 277 (it could well be that some some non-specific photos were introduced to create a change of pace as the reader turns the pages, in the 'Street photographer' book several blank pages were used to do this). Maloof's book is also a better production with a good matt art paper for the 200 screen printing which produces solid blacks and mid-tones, something I thought was missing from 'Out of the shadows' though printed with a 175 screen.
Both Maier books, of course, display wonderful photos taken by this extraordinary amateur photographer. Who knew while she was alive? Her legacy will slowly be revealed with each new publication.

Sad layout of book
By N. Johnson
First off I am a big fan of Vivian Maier's work. I wish I was smart enough to buy some of the negatives on EBAY. I collect photo books with over 1000 rare photo books from the 1930- 2013 in my Library. She had an amazing eye.
It seems the owner of the images went with a cheap publisher. The book is poorly laid out, The Power House Street Photographer publication has better printing, better paper and better use of the images.
Petty as is sounds presentation of ones work is important. The book is split in full bleed of the photos on some pages and white bordered images on the next page,This really robs the image of powerful content. Captions on some and others nothing ( not that it matters where she took the image) The printing is fair but the images do not pop out of the pages ( which they should they are powerful photos) The paper is cheap that it is printed on , not nearly as good as thePower House Street Photographer published book.
I was saddened when I looked at the book, content is strong but the presentation is awful. The text is okay I will keep the book to teach with.
Sorry to be so negative, I just feel this book does not do her Justice! I hope they return to Power House or Aperture for the next book.
Regards All.
