| Publisher Description: In a short line of Texas Highways distinguished photo editors, J. Griffis Smith has been described by a fellow photographer as a "galactic force," reveling in taking pictures of everything Texas wherever the magazine's assignments took him, all with the goal of inspiring "folks to travel." Celebrating the roaming life of a professional magazine photographer, Texas Highways has joined with Smith to assemble a collection of signature images from three decades of work, including memorable pictures of Texas icons, landscapes, people, and historical and cultural destinations. An essay by E. Dan Klepper conveys a sense of how photo editors have worked at Texas Highways and how Griff Smith's quirky, creative nature has helped to shape the magazine's style and message. |
