TOP OF THE WEEK: A SPECIAL YEAR: Mao died and Jimmy Carter took born-again politics to the White House. The tall ships brought the eighteenth century alive in New York Harbor and a spindly-legged explorer named Viking sent 2001-style images back from Mars. Patty Hearst went to prison (for a while), Liz Taylor got married (for the seventh time), Nadia Comaneci was perfect, the Israelis dazzled the world with Entebbe, the Lockheed scandal rocked governments from Japan to the Netherlands. The pleasures and pains of being alive in 1976 included skateboards and CB radios, earthquakes and swine flu, King Kong and Gary Gilmore, Yves Saint Laurent's peasant look and Earl Butz's bad joke. For NEWSWEEK, 1976 has been a special year as well -- a time when extraordinary events stimulated a series of innovative special issues. For the first time in its history, the magazine excerpted a major book, Wood- ward and Bernstein's "The Final Days." The Bicentennial issue, "Our America," was a group portrait of our people told in their own words. Two campaign-year specials examined Carter and Gerald Ford in searching detail. And this week, the whole panorama of 1976 is captured in an issue-length portfolio of the year's most evocative images -- among them an unprecedented 27 pages of color photographs. The issue reflects NEWSWEEK'S evolving commitment to photojournalism as part of its week-to-week coverage of the world and to photography as a modern art. The magazine's own staff photographers contributed a score of pictures to the special issue and numerous others were taken by free-lance photographers on assignment for NEWSWEEK. The design of this week's issue is the work of Associate Art Director Peter Blank, 33, who joined the magazine last year and has been responsible for all five specials of '76. A worldwide picture search was conducted by photo editors James J. Kenney, John Whalen, David Wyland and Cover editor Robert V. Engle. General Editor Ron Meyerson designed the cover. Senior Editor Peter Goldman, who contributed to each of the year's special issues, wrote the words. * NOTE: OUR content description is GUARANTEED accurate for THIS magazine.
