Alexandrowicz (1927-1984) was a Pittsburgh-based photographer known both for his photo-journalism and his fine art photography; in the 1970s and 1980s he also worked for the EPA documenting industry's effects on the ecology of western Pennsylvania. An excerpt from the 1984 obituary in the Post-Gazette: "In 1973, Donald Miller, Post-Gazette art critic, reviewing a showing of Mr. Alexandrowicz's color photographs, described him as 'a visual poet, alive to compositional line, keen on moody landscapes, seascapes, exotic people and places.' At that time Mr. Alexandrowicz's giant prints were shown at three Downtown locations. Another Post-Gazette art critic, the late Jeannette Jena, once described Mr. Alexandrowicz as 'a gifted photographer whose work has a feeling for light and shade that suggests the chiaroscuro of 17th Century painting.' A native of Erie, Mr. Alexandrowicz began his career on the Erie Dispatch and joined the Sun-Telegraph in 1952. He remained there until 1961, when he joined the Post-Gazette, which had taken over the Sun-Telegraph. He started his own photography business on the Northside, and as a free-lance photographer received commissions from Western Pennsylvania industries. - His awards included the annual Kent State University photography contest, the Popular Photography Magazine contest and the Associated Press Newsphoto contest. He was Pittsburgh photographer for the New York Times and was a member of the Press Photographers Association of Greater Pittsburgh, the National Press Photographers Association, the Allegheny (North-side) Chamber of Commerce, the Polish Arts League, the Polish National Alliance, Polish Falcons and the Ethnic Cultural Heritage Organization., 1955, 3, Burlington, Ontario, Canada: Apogee Books, 2006. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Mass market paperback. Good. Format is approximately 4.25 inches by 6.875 inches. 66 pages and 30 pages of color photographs and illustrations. Additional color and black and white illustrations to the text portion. This is a Pocket Space Guide. Complete with photographs and drawings from Russia's Rocket & Space Corporation Energia, this Pocket Space Guide, #8 in the series, is a condensed history of the Russian Space Program from 1946 to the present day. Fifteen years after the founding of the program, in April 1961, Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first human to fly in space, and the race was on. Fabulous spacecraft photos and facts illustrate and authenticate this authoritative history. Robert Godwin (born 1958) is a British author who has written about rock music and spaceflight. In 1984, Godwin wrote The Illustrated Led Zeppelin Collection a book for Led Zeppelin collectors. Books he authored between 1987 and 2007 include The Illustrated Collector's Guide to Led Zeppelin, Apollo 11 The First Men on the Moon, Project Apollo The Test Program, Project Apollo Exploring the Moon, Mars, The Lunar Exploration Scrapbook, Russian Spacecraft, Space Shuttle Fact Archive and The Making of Led Zeppelin IV. In 2005 Godwin co-authored Saturn with Alan Lawrie. The book won the Sir Arthur Clarke Award for Best Presentation Written in 2006. In 2013 he co-authored a biography of Arthur C. Clarke with Fred Clarke, brother of Arthur. In 2014 he co-authored 2001 The Heritage and Legacy of the Space Odyssey with Frederick I. Ordway III, who was technical adviser to Stanley Kubrick for the film 2001 A Space Odyssey. In October 2015, Godwin wrote and published The First Scientific Concept of Rockets for Space Travel, an essay in which he asserted that a Scottish Presbyterian Minister and Canadian University Principal named William Leitch was the first scientist to determine, for the correct reasons, that rockets were the best method for powering space flight. Godwin's essay was publicly endorsed by Frank H. Winter, retired Curator of Rocketry at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, and by David Baker, editor of the British Interplanetary Society's magazine, Spaceflight. Leitch's proposal for rockets appeared in September 1861 in the magazine Good Words, effectively pre-dating the modern proponents of rocketry, such as Robert Hutchings Goddard and Konstantin Tsiolkovsky by more than three decades. In late 2016 Godwin released his findings as a book entitled William Leitch - Presbyterian Scientist & The Concept of Rocket Space Flight 1854-1864. Godwin co-authored Outpost in Orbit - An Oral and Pictorial History of the International Space Station with David Shayler in 2018. The book was written in cooperation with the ISS office at the Johnson Space Center under a NASA Space Agreement. Godwin's book Manned Lunar Landing & Return, released in March 2019, told the story of Project MALLAR, the 1959 plan for a manned lunar landing created by Conrad Lau, head of Advanced Projects at the Chance Vought Aircraft Company's Astronautics Division. Lau's report proposed a three module spacecraft system which would take two people to the lunar surface and use a technique known as lunar orbit rendezvous to return them to Earth. Godwin showed that Abe Silverstein, a senior NASA manager was given the report on January 12th 1960 and two weeks later instructed NASA's Advance Vehicle team to adopt this design for the Apollo spacecraft., Apogee Books, 2006, 2.5<
