Hailed as 'photography's new conscience,' photographer and psychiatrist Dr. Glenn Losack has spent a lifetime traveling the world, determined to extend healing, hope, and compassion.

With a camera in hand, he goes places that tourists rarely visit, including slums, alleys, and dark streets. He's seen struggle, but he's also seen our shared humanity: families playing together, labourers working, the devout praying to their gods. Dr. Losack has found resilience, joy, passion, and celebration in communities the world over, even in places plagued with corrupt government, poor infrastructure, and disease.

The 200 captivating photos in The Bonds We Share, taken in India, the Dominican Republic, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Morocco, Peru, Tunisia, Sri Lanka, Egypt, the United States, Eastern Europe, and elsewhere, serve as a remarkable retrospective of Dr. Losack's work and reveal an essential truth: we may come from very different cultures, far-ranging geographic corners, belief systems, and economic circumstances, but we all share the same desire to work hard, raise families, and lead fulfilling lives. In this spectacular volume, Dr. Losack interrogates timely notions of difference and portrays the commonality of people from different cultures around the globe.

Glenn Losack

Dr. Glenn Losack is a psychiatrist, physician, photographer, social activist, and musician who has traveled and worked extensively in the developing world for over forty years. Devoted to raising awareness of poverty and stymying the stigma of diseases like leprosy, Dr. Losack has worked with the Medical Benevolent Foundation, Doctors Without Borders, and Catholic Charities, and has given lectures on psychiatric care throughout India, Bangladesh, Vietnam, and Eastern Europe.

His work has been featured in National Geographic, Asian Geographic, and Popular and American Photography, and has been selected for Kodak's "Picture of the Day" five times. As a psychiatrist, Dr. Losack practices "tele-psychiatry," utilizing videoconferencing to treat rural populations in underserved communities with very few psychiatrists, and today, he treats four hundred patients throughout Middle America. Dr. Losack has also worked with patients in prisons in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York for over twenty-five years, including those in solitary confinement, those serving life sentences, and those on death row. Dr. Losack travels regularly but lives in Manhattan.
