Join Sofia Coppola in conversation with Michael Mack for a discussion on photography, publishing, and the influence of photobooks. Coppola’s Important Flowers imprint at MACK has brought to life the freewheeling adolescent characters of Joseph Szabo's American Teen, and the traditions of Black debutante balls in Social Season by Miranda Barnes. The pair will discuss the editorial vision for Important Flowers and how it intersects with Coppola's on-screen world-building.
