Jim
Anderson photographed The Grateful Dead from the 30th of June 1974,
up to the last show in Chicago, 9th of July 1995
His photographs cover the spectrum: close-ups of the
Band, stage lighting & design, and us, the Deadheads, who continue
the tradition
Seventy seven of
Jim Anderson's photos are peppered throughout Grateful
Dead The Illustrated Trip
Originally published in 2003, this book is the historic record
of the Dead scene. Many thanks & kudos to the fine folks
at DK Publishing, Maria Gibbs and Victoria Clark, who worked
long and tireless hours in its production. The Illustrated Trip
is now out of print and has become very collectable. Click on

This
web site, started in 1999, is always a work in progress.
Jim Anderson's archive
holds thousands of photos starting in the mid 1970's, throughout
the '80's, and ton's of lighting design shots from the '90's.
And not to forget, the 00's. Also, there are lots of cool
shots of the Dead scene, not just the band and stage. What
began as a fun endeavor coming directly from Jim's professional
photography career, being a Deadhead and early taper, turned
into a lifelong project to document this extraordinary cultural
phenomena.
Jim Anderson's Dead photos have been seen in Dupree's
Diamond News, DDN's Jerry Garcia Tribute, on VH1's Grateful
Dead Legend's Series, in the
Deadheads Taping Compendium, Entertainment Weekly, Lighting
Dimensions Magazine, Performance Magazine, and the following:
