Many people in the Chicago area are familiar with Steve Redick, a Senior Fire Alarm Operator with the Chicago Fire Department (CFD) and a contributor to this website. Steve's father, Warren Redick, had a long and distinguished career with the CFD before retiring. A passionate photographer, Warren captured the essence of firefighting through his lens, starting in the 1950s when most photographers still used black and white film. He was ahead of his time, using Kodachrome slides to document the department's history with striking clarity and artistry.
Warren had an eye for composition and always got perfect exposures, resulting in a stunning collection of images that showcase both the fire apparatus and the firefighters in action. These photographs offer a rare glimpse into a bygone era of Chicago firefighting.
Steve describes the book as:
*"An historical photo retrospective of the Chicago Fire Department. The book features several hundred brilliantly restored Kodachrome images of the men, apparatus, and fires from the 1950s and 1960s. It also includes historical data such as dates, locations, equipment details, and a wealth of interesting facts and anecdotes. This is a must-have book for anyone interested in the rich visual history of Chicago’s fire service."*
