Winners of the Lange-Taylor Prize in 2000, photographer Deborah Luster and poet C. D. Wright set out to produce, in their words, "an authentic document of Louisiana's prison population through image and text—a document to ward off forgetting, an opportunity for the inmates to present themselves as they would be seen, bringing what they own or borrow or use: work tools, objects of their making, messages of their choosing, their bodies, themselves."

A selection of their collaborative work is now available in a special 44-page publication from the Center for Documentary Studies.

The cost is $10 a copy, which includes shipping and handling for orders of up to 5 copies. Add an additional $.25 S/H for each additional copy over 5. North Carolina residents include 6% sales tax.

Please send check or money order, made payable to the Center for Documentary Studies, to:
Web Offers, Center for Documentary Studies, 1317 W. Pettigrew Street, Durham, NC 27705

Official purchase orders must accompany institutional orders.
