Los Angeles: Robert Heinecken, (1985). Near Fine. 11-3/8 x 9 inches. [16]pp + wrappers. Stapled multicolored wrappers lettered in white. Color illustrations. Minor shelfwear to spine ends and corners, else fine. An unusual feminist artist's book that examines CBS's attempts in 1984 to find a female co-anchor for their Morning News program. Using TV stills of superimposed images of male and female anchors formed "at that exact moment when the studio cameras are switching from one person to another", Heinecken applies principles of physiognomy to suggest which pairing will be most successful. Potential anchors included Diane Sawyer, Jane Pauley, Joan Lunden, Susan Spencer, Jane Wallace, Connie Chung, Maria Shriver, Meredith Vieira, Carol Martin, Pat Collins, Phyllis George, and even, briefly, Vanessa Williams. These are shown paired primarily with Bill Kurtis and Steve Baskerville, the two male anchors on the program, with varying results.
