Book Launch: Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band

Join legendary photographer Lynn Goldsmith in conversation with photographer Pam Springsteen for an in depth conversation about her new TASCHEN book Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band.

“By the end of Darkness, I had found my adult voice.” In 1977, dismissed by the press as
a one-hit wonder, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band entered the studio to record the album that transformed a “kid from New Jersey” into America’s poet laureate of life’s underdogs. The tour that followed would come to be regarded as one of the most legendary in rock ‘n’ roll history, propelled by the nervous intensity of a group determined to prove itself.

Present throughout the recording, release, and tour of Darkness on the Edge of Town, Lynn Goldsmith tracks these memorable steps in Springsteen’s journey to becoming an American icon. With illuminating forewords from both artists, the book gathers hundreds of photographs—classic, rare, and previously unseen—that bring to life a star at his hungriest.

The conversation will conclude with a Q&A session. Signed books will be available to order.
