In this unique collection of black-and-white photographs, Bob Martin shares some of the work he so passionately created and collected in the 40 years he spent as a South African stage and screen publicity-stills photographer. But Highlights and footlights is not just about the icons of our stage and screen. It is a testament to the extraordinary talent that is Bob Martin. Through his magical lens, Bob not only reveals his chameleon-like empathy with all his subjects but his charming and witty recollections of his various studies also portray a fascinating and enviable memory of the period. Highlights and Footlights depicts a glamorous and artistically rich era. It is also an important record for those South Africans who love and appreciate the beauty, art and culture of theatre, dance, music and the movies.
