Born and bred in a working class environment in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Bruce Springsteen has, over the past 30 years, established himself as one of the most influential songwriters and performers in American popular music. Winner of three Grammy Awards for "The Rising", he continues to entertain and inspire millions of fans around the world. Also born and bred in a working class New Jersey home was photographer Frank Stefanko, who crossed paths with Springsteen thanks to an introduction by a mutual friend, musician Patti Smith. This meeting spurred a photographic collaboration that lasted five years and produced some cover photos for two of Springsteen's most significant albums, "Darkness on the Edge of Town" and "The River". Stefanko's archive of several thousand Springsteen photos has never been published - that is, until now. "Days of Hope and Dreams" presents a selection of Stefanko's most significant and most personal images from his time working with Springsteen, and Stefanko's recollections offer behind-the-scenes stories of his work and friendship with this legendary musical talent.
Featuring an introduction written by "the Boss" himself, this is a guide for Springsteen fans and music lovers everywhere!
