Abstract
We derive expressions for pion photoproduction amplitudes in the 1/N_c expansion of QCD, and obtain linear relations directly from this expansion that relate electromagnetic multipole amplitudes at all energies. The leading-order relations in 1/N_c compare favorably with available data, while the next-to-leading order relations seem to provide only a small improvement. However, when resonance parameters are compared directly, the agreement at O(1/N_c) or O(1/N_c^2) is impressive.
