Rock-and-roll goddess Joan Jett holds a beloved place in the
world of music. She started her first band, The Runaways, at age
fifteen and has blazed a trail that has inspired and thrilled her
fans to this day. AMMO Books is proud to release this authorized,
loving tribute conceived and authored by designer Todd Oldham. The
book chronicles all aspects of her career and passions through
images--from forming The Runaways to her years of touring with her
band, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. JOAN JETT features many
never-before-seen photos, ephemera, and excerpts from thirty years
worth of interviews, carefully curated with Joan herself, covering
the multi-decade career of a real rock-and-roll icon. A thoughtful
introduction written by renowned indie rocker and Riot Grrrl
Kathleen Hanna brings context to this exciting title.
Joan Jett is a revered songwriter, musician, and American icon.
In keeping with her pioneering spirit, she went on to be the first
woman to start her own independent rock label, Blackheart Records.
The Joan Jett and the Blackhearts Greatest Hits compilation was
released in March 2010, and a film based on The Runaways starring
Dakota Fanning, and Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett will be released
on DVD in July 2010.
