John "Ace" Lane, Jr. has followed in his father's
footsteps as an award-winning racing photographer. From the age of five
he accompanied his father to the races and in the darkroom, learning
about racing and photography and falling in love with both. At the
Flemington Fairgrounds, where his father was track photographer, he
would shoot 8mm movies for his father, perched atop a stepladder in the
track's infield parking area. In the Teaneck Armory, his father would
place him in the seats near the third turn, and at Langhorne he filmed
for his dad from inside the first turn. |
After the races,
father and son would rush to the darkroom at home in South Plainfield
to develop the film and print the most spectacular shots in order to
get them to the Courier-News and the Star-Ledger by deadline. By the
time he reached the age of 18, old enough to be permitted in the race
pits in New Jersey, Ace, Junior was shooting in tandem with his father
and beginning to form his own style ACE: The Auto Racing Photo Journal of Ace Lane, Senior is
Ace Lane, Junior's first book, and is a genuine labor of love.
Books are not available at this time.
We are sorry and doing our best to get more copies into print
