In Palm Springs, Nancy Baron guides us through the storied American resort town of Palm Springs, investigating its Mid-Century Modern lifestyle from the vantage point of a resident. Their homes, cars, and clothes pay homage to this carefree post World War II time in US history that glows warmly in their vintage rear view mirrors. Many of these Modernists weren't born yet in the 1950s and 1960s, yet still they find comfort in this re-enactment of gentler times.

In The Good Life, Nancy Baron offers a lush insider's look at the resort town of Palm Springs, California. After years of visiting Palm Springs as a tourist, Baron became a part-time resident of this desert town and discovered that it was both everything and nothing like she expected.

A few steps from the resorts, there is a jewel of a small town, with something for everyone. Baron's images show us what she sees in this welcoming town.
