Who? He was an African American photo essayist for Life from the late '40s through the early '70s. He's maybe best known for his shots of the American South, the inner city North and the Civil Rights Movement. I knew about his celebrity shots, but I had no idea he'd done so much fashion photography. Very cool find, Herman. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Very cool find, Herman. I am addicted to this link. And often photogrpahers had to take commercial jobs to pay for the work in which they poored their harts. I want to check out his American South pics now... | |
