Summary:

"Lewis Hine (1874-1940) was a sociologist, as his preference for themes related to immigrants and the working class in his photographs would clearly suggest. Having studied in Chicago and New York, he became a teacher of geography at the private Ethical Culture School in New York in 1901. An assignment to teach photography as well led him to that medium in 1903. In 1908 Hinbe gave up teaching and became a professional photographer." "This volume presents a selection of photographs chosen from among nearly 11,000 negatives, a cross-section of Hine's creative work. It celebrates one of the truly great pioneers of documentary photography, an artist who left his mark in subsequent generations of photographers in this genre. Lewis Hine's influence upon the great documentary photographers of our time is undeniable."--Jacket.
