Publisher’s Note: Illustrious sitters jump as their photograph was taken, and the photographer reflects on the jumpers and non-jumpers

This unique and authoritative book has long been out of print, and so Abrams takes great pleasure in reissuing it, adding previously unpublished jumps, in recognition of this revolutionary breakthrough that united briefly the science of psychology and the art of photography.

Where other portraitists were content to have their subjects sit for them, Philippe Halsman had his jump. Having reached the pinnacle of success as a portrait photographer in the mid-1950s, Halsman began to ask his illustrious sitters to jump for him, and most complied: Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly, and Brigitte Bardot; Richard Nixon and Adlai Stevenson; the Duke and Duchess of Windsor; Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein II; and countless others leapt at the chance. This book, with a charming text by Halsman, suggests the livelier side of the 1950s.

More info:
Commissioned by the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Brando, Picasso, Nixon and the Kennedys, Phillippe Halsman turned formal fashion shots into serious investigations of character. Engaging his subjects in disarming chatter, he would often ask them to jump, which he believed would free them of their postures and defenses. "When you ask a person to jump, his attention is mostly directed toward the act of jumping and the mask falls so that the real person appears."

From surrealist flourishes such as headless bodies or bodiless heads, to "jumpology", which would become his trademark, Philippe pursued his quest to uncover the hidden truths behind the masks of his subjects.

Philipe Halsman (1906-1979) came to the United States in 1940, a refugee from France. He was a well known photographer in Europe but he had to start from scratch in this country.

In two years of hard struggle he made a name for himself as one of America’s leading photographers and found himself busy night and day with people who heard of his reputation and wished to be photographed. More of Mr. Halsman’s pictures have appeared on the cover of Life magazine (101) than those of any other photographer.

Although a superb technician, he had about him an air of an amateur and experimentalist. He was forever trying new things. Thus, when he met Fernandel, the subject of another book, he asked him to come to his studio so he could make him a subject of an interview – the questions to be asked in words and the answers to come in the form of facial expressions.
