Photographer Lynn Goldsmith on Springsteen’s “Darkness”


Listen Later

Welcome. My guest this episode is artist and photographer Lynn Goldsmith.

 

Her career as a photographer has brought her into the orbit of rock n roll legends like Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, and notably Bruce Springsteen with whom she had a romantic relationship in the 70s as he was still working his way up, with his blistering live shows, and the relentlessly determined creative drive which produced the album Darkness On The Edge Of Town. Her document of this era forms the basis of a new coffee table book published by Taschen entitled “Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band: Darkness on the Edge of Town”.

 

She’s had an incredible life: working with Elektra Records in the late 60s, co-managing Grand Funk Railroad in the early 70s, and releasing music under the name of Will Powers in the early 80s.

 

She’s also worked in other mediums of art and her photographs have graced album and magazine covers.

 

Lynn joined me from Nashville to talk about her new book and her career in general. We had a great chat. Hope you enjoy it.
