Fine.. np, profusely illustrated in b&w. "In some ways, this book started when Flare magazine published my photograph of model Linda Evangelista in 1998, promoting a concert she and I were co-sponsoring to raise money for a breast cancer screening clinic in St. Catharine's, Ontario. Previously, I had recorded some music for a CD and performed at a concert in Los Angeles both for breast cancer research, so the idea of continuing to raise awareness was forefront in my mind. I approached Flare with the idea of continuing to promote awareness, hence this book. I am extremely grateful to all those who gave both time and money to help make each photo happen and especially to all the women photographed here who were Made in Canada".
