Description
In a world of marquee names and big personalities, Jenny Anderson is a legend in her own right. As a celebrated Broadway photographer, she has worked with the most important performers in theatre and used the power of photography to tell the stories behind the stories: what happens backstage on a Broadway show.
The In-Between: Intimate and Candid Moments of Broadway Stars has been years in the making. It is Anderson's personal ode to the theatre community, including more than 100 of her photographs taken behind the scenes of the most iconic shows of the last decade: Hamilton, Wicked, The Lion King, Kinky Boots, Sweeney Todd, Waitress, Hadestown, Phantom of the Opera, and many, many more. With a foreword from Tony Nominee and Oscar Winner Ariana DeBose and rare photography of performers like Patti LuPone, Hugh Jackman, Chita Rivera, Jonathan Groff, and Gavin Creel, this gorgeous book gives Broadway fans a privileged glance behind the curtains of the world's most prestigious theaters and the stars who grace their stages.

They say magicians should never reveal their secrets. But in exposing the inner workings of so many showstopping performances, Anderson pulls us all under the theater's spell - holding our breaths as we race toward that moment when the room is hushed and everything is possible, just before the curtain goes up.

Jenny Anderson is a magician with the camera. She is able to capture every detail of a moment with one click of a button. Many times, she has caught me in my most joyful moments and I believe it is a privilege to be lensed by such an amazing being.

Jenny brings that rare unparalleled breed of artistry to her photography: one that marries craftsmanship with trusted companionship. She has the special ability to capture the candid spectrum of emotion for so many of us in key moments by providing such trust, genuine support, and comfortability with her sharp vision, stunning taste, and her heart that prioritizes memorializing those special moments for us in the way we feel the most seen and understood.

Jenny Anderson is the first photographer who truly captured who I feel I am on the inside. When I look at Jenny's photos I see my true self. Not the version of myself others have told me to be.

Jenny Anderson has become a unique treasure of the American Theatre community. The same way that Hirschfeld's drawings interpreted the artists and productions of the theatre in his time, so do Jenny's photographs today. We open up our dressing room doors to Jenny with love and respect. She is the finest theatre photographer of our generation. Her work captures the vulnerability and magic of an art form that is live so that it can live on forever. I can't wait to see what art continues to come from her.

Jenny's talent goes deeper than capturing the moment and getting the shot. She has something far more special that only true artists have - she is able to tap into the uniqueness and singularity of her subjects and because of that, she brings out their essence in each and every photo. When you look at her work, you feel you truly know the person she's photographed, and that you've learned something new about them you may not have seen previously. That, coupled with her generosity, her easy going vibe and her kind soul, is what makes her at the top of every artist and producer's wish list. There's simply no one else like her.
