Timothy Asch (1932-1994) was probably the greatest ethnographic
filmmaker of the latter twentieth century, and one of the
best-known anthropologists of his generation. He worked with
Margaret Mead, John Marshall and Napoleon Chagnon, lived and filmed
on every continent except Antarctica, and won numerous
international prizes. His work, which includes 'The Ax Fight' and
more than 50 other films of the Yanomamo Indians of Venezuela,
comprises the most widely used resource in the teaching of
anthropology today. Timothy Asch and Ethnographic Film combines a
biographical overview of Asch's life with theoretical and critical
perspectives, giving a definitive guide to his background, aims and
ideas, methodology and major projects. Beautifully illustrated with
60 photos, and featuring articles from many of Asch's friends,
colleagues and collaborators as well as an important interview with
Asch himself, it is an ideal introduction to his work and to a
range of key issues in ethnographic film."
