Additional Details



Ansel Adams achieved celebrity status in the 1960s, gracing the cover of "Time" magazine and appearing on the Johnny Carson Show--the prototype for today's late-night talk shows. An ardent environmentalist who championed the movement long before it was fashionable to do so, his photographs were synonymous with photography as a fine art endeavor.
