''Photographic Memory'' William Claxton, introduction by Graydon Carter (powerHouse, $65)

Claxton is most famous for his pictures of early jazz giants. Just check out the shot of Chet Baker, looking sweet and sculpted in a fitted white sweater. (''He looked like an angelic boxer,'' remembers Claxton, ''a tough guy with a pretty face topped with a slick '50s pompadour.'') But the jazz lover also captured the vulnerability of a young Mia Farrow, the silliness of Terry Southern, the smugness of Joni Mitchell, and many more famous faces.
