Join young Cam as he explores San Francisco from Above. His imagination affords him the flight of a lifetime as he takes off from his neighborhood of Painted Ladies and soars high above the Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower, the Transamerica Building, the constant and mysterious fog, crooked Lombard Street, the Ferry Building and more! The beloved photographs of Robert Cameron and his hometown of San Francisco take on a child-like wonder when viewed through the eyes of Cam.
Robert Cameron (1911-2009) was a famed American photographer and publisher of 17 books featuring aerial photographs of cities throughout the world. Nina Gruener grew up thinking her grandfather, Robert Cameron, had the coolest job around. The story of Cam is a tribute to the sense of wonder with which Robert Cameron approached every city. She lives in Northern California with her husband and two children.
