Determined to see what was in front of him without sentimentality or judgment, Walker Evans found beauty in the ordinary. Whether photographing buildings and workers in New York City or documenting the lives of tenant families in Alabama for the book Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, he let the character of his subjects come to the fore. Evans gave people a unique and lasting picture of America and forever changed the art of photography. Black-and-white photographs. Bibliography. Chronology. Index.
