Lewis Hine


September 26, 1874 - November 3, 1940

Noted for his use of photography for social form, such as changing child labor laws in the U.S.

The building of the Empire State Building

Mill Girl

Used Work Wear

Hine documented child labor in the U.S. to help the NCLC's efforts to end child labor
Photographed American Red Cross relief, the building of the Empire State, worked for the TVA and the WPA

Rating: *****
I like how his photographed are beautiful as art but were used for social reform
