Backstreets magazine just published a terrific story and interview on the making of Bruce Springsteen: From Asbury Park, to Born to Run, to Born in the USA (Rizzoli). It is an account of how Bruce Springsteen and photographer David Gahr came together and their enduring association, which led to the publication of this highly regarded book. Smithsonian.com writes of the book’s “rarely seen photographs that capture the exhilarating power of the Boss.”

Backstreets‘ Chris Phillips writes, “A new book from Rizzoli, Bruce Springsteen: From Asbury Park, to Born to Run, to Born in the USA, finally reveals the breadth of Gahr’s work with Springsteen, in session after session documenting his rise to superstardom. Govinda Gallery founder Chris Murray was tapped by the Estate of David Gahr to put the book together, making selections from thousands of black and white negatives and color slides for a definitive collection.”
