Make a PowerPoint presentation using Python?

So I have a collection of close to 90 photographs along with a caption and the date stored in a text file. The images are of variable sizes and I would like to automate the procedure of converting this data into a PowerPoint presentation, with one picture on one slide along with its date and caption as the Title. Any reliable methods present?

Another approach is to automate powerpoint through win32com. I have succesfully done this to augenerate presentations with lots of images following the instructions at http://www.s-anand.net/blog/automating-powerpoint-with-python/ .
