it was amazing
bookshelves: art-inspiration

An all-time favorite book featuring the face of America from small towns to cities. Day and night. Years ago SFMOMA featured a Robert Frank exhibition with many of these photos, plus his the letters he wrote to friends and to get grants. Best of all was matching the photographer's notes on why certain images were selected (or not) as part of the story of America he wanted to tell with the image itself.
