Seen and Heard: Teenagers Talk About Their Lives is a rare and intimate portrait of American adolescence - a coming-of-age documentary that listens without judgment and looks without pretense. Photographer and interviewer Mary Motley Kalergis gives voice to young people at one of life's most intense crossroads, illuminating the moments when identity, family, friendship, and hope collide. Through black-and-white portraits and unguarded conversations, teenagers from diverse backgrounds speak candidly about the issues that shape their lives - parents, school, love, loss, and the uncertain promise of the future. What emerges is a striking collective self-portrait of a generation: thoughtful, resilient, and searching for meaning in a complicated world. In his foreword, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Sam Shepard writes of the "animal thrill and terror of facing the unknown," praising the honesty and courage of these young people who "seem to be asking the question Who am I? for real." His words frame the book's central revelation - that truth often flickers between the cracks of who we think we are and who we might become. Kalergis's documentary approach combines empathy, artistry, and journalistic precision. Like her acclaimed books on marriage, birth, adoption, and motherhood, Seen and Heard explores the universal human experience through the particular - finding beauty in vulnerability and strength in honesty. This book invites parents, educators, and readers of all generations to pause, listen, and rediscover the authentic voices of youth. It is at once a time capsule of American adolescence and a timeless meditation on the courage it takes to grow up.
