About The Author

Jeff Lowenthal

Jeff Lowenthal began photography as an enthusiastic amateur but soon became a professional after images he took at a recording session were featured in Downbeat magazine. “If I can’t make music, I can document those who do,” he says. Jeff has a BS from the University of Wisconsin and an MSJ from Northwestern but learned photography on the job. He is also the author of Fleetwood Mac in Chicago (with Robert Schaffner).

Robert Schaffner grew up in a variety of states, until his family finally settled in the Chicagoland area. His hometown and his interest in British blues made the Fleetwood Mac in Chicago album a perfect and inevitable topic for this book.
