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.
Over time, a great deal of photography was shot specifically
for good friend Candace Brightman, long time lighting designer
for the Grateful Dead. Candace has her own company, Animated
Architecture, and has done beautiful work lighting Phil
& Friends, the '96 Olympic Village, and The Dead tours
in the 00's. Candace is currently concert lighting designer
for Widespread Panic.
