	Edited by Iris Tillman Hill Foreword by Lauren Greenfield Introduction by Tom Rankin A Lyndhurst Book 25 UNDER 25 showcases twenty-five of America's most promising photographers, twenty-five years old and younger. Illuminating and sometimes startling, the collection introduces work by an emerging generation of photographers at the start of their careers. These talented artists' exploration of the medium is surprisingly sophisticated and engaging—their approaches to the art include photojournalism, highly personal essays, art constructions, candid snaps, portraits, still lifes, and photo with a message. 25 UNDER 25 is a window into the dreams, anxieties, and ambitions of these innovative young photographers, of whom we will be seeing much more in the years to come. This vibrant collection reveals how these photographers are looking at the world and how they see themselves. Whether "straight photography" and documentary essays or highly personal and expressionistic stories, the work covers as broad a range of intriguing subjects and places.
