Photopocket San Francisco

120 b/w photographs

San Francisco has long been one of America's most attractive cities, "a gleaming jewel of the West Coast surrounded on three sides by water." Its hilly streets provide gorgeous glimpses of San Francisco Bay and The Golden Gate Bridge and its neighborhoods reveals a mosaic of a city whose residents are an anthology of the world. Whether he's photographing the street life of bustling Chinatown, the gentrifying Mission or faux-Bohemian North Beach, this third generation San Franciscan renowned for his photographic essays captures it all In this superb collection of photographs of the city he loves.

Photographer and author Morton Beebe founded the West Coast arm of the Image Bank, the world's largest photography agency. His photography of exotic locales around the world is widely exhibited. He has published several books, including the best-selling San Francisco.
