![]() ![]() Her new book, On Set with John Carpenter, is a perfect collector’s item for fans of the writer/director/composer, but it is also a time capsule transporting readers back to an era before the digital age of cell phone cameras and internet gossip blogs hungry for spoilery content from the sets of Hollywood productions, a time that today’s teen moviegoers have absolutely no memory of. Kim Gottlieb-Walker is about to release the ultimate love letter to director John Carpenter, an intimate new book containing hundreds of rare photos captured by Gottlieb-Walker during her years as the director’s on set photographer, giving Carpenter fans an amazing look at what it was like to be there when The Shape first appeared on screen or when Plissken first hissed the line “Call me Snake”.Īfter making her name as an underground counterculture photographer in the late 1960s and following Bob Marley around for a few years in the ’70s, Kim Gottlieb-Walker was hired as the official production photographer of John Carpenter’s Halloween in 1978, and she would remain on Carpenter’s crew through many of the most popular films that followed, including The Fog, Escape from New York, and Christine, as well as Halloween II. ![]()
