    My name is Joanne Hague from the Woodstock - Preservation Archives(http://www.woodstockpreservation.org/). My partner (Brad Littleproud) and I are presently researching and assembling a book for Krause Publishing (Goldmine Record Album Price Guide) to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Fair. With the 40th approaching - and probably the most significant of all the anniversary’s - we were hoping that there is someone out there who might consider contributing to this project.

    We are in the process of telling the Woodstock story from the vantage point of the attendees. We are gathering personal photos and memories that chronicle the festival in a way that no other books on Woodstock have done thus far. Finding all of those never-before-seen instamatic and 35 mm photos from those in attendance has been a bit of 'needle in a haystack' treasure hunt, but we have been thrilled at what we have uncovered so far and it’s been amazing at how many folks, from artists, organizers, crew, attendees and residents, have offered their recollections. This book will be an accumulation of those memories, with 75-80 percent of them coming from those unaffiliated with the event, but simply attendees.

    If you were at Woodstock in 1969, and would like to share your memories or pictures - please contact me at joann1108@aol.com

    Thank you,
    Joanne
