FAMOUS AUTHORS

by Jeff Zimmermann

Built in the early '60s to revitalize Chicago's Old Town neighborhood the Sandburg Village—named after Illinois author Carl Sandburg—encompasses nine separate high-rises all named after other prominent authors such as Faulkner, Elliot, Dickinson, and Alcott. Four decades after the units' 1979 conversion to condos Chicago native Jeff Zimmermann added a tribute to five addional authors with portraits of Ernest Hemingway, James Baldwin, Upton Sinclair, Betty Smith, and Ayn Rand. Internationally renowned artist Zimmermann's work has been described as "having the sex appeal of commercial art" and his application of a background in graphic design to creating flashy and inviting portraits is fully on display here.
