The book American Auto offers a fascinating look at three decades (from the 1950s to the 1970s) of American fascination with the car. At a time when autonomous vehicles and climate change are transforming the driving process worldwide, Zimmerman's photos capture the optimism and utopianism of a cherished period in American automotive culture. Many of Zimmerman's photos were originally taken for Life, Time, and Sports Illustrated magazines and highlight various aspects of the US automotive industry at its peak. The photos are not limited to the iconic cars of the era but also offer a behind-the-scenes look at the people who designed, manufactured, collected, exhibited, and raced them. With over 200 photos, sourced from the Zimmerman Archive collection, including the most famous photos of Ford, Chrysler, and GM at their peak, as well as memorabilia, clippings, and material from his missions, the book celebrates the central place of the car in American culture during those decades when the timeless silhouettes of classic cars dominated the roads.
