Walker Evans


November 3, 1903 - April 10, 1975

Noted for his documentation of the Great Depression for the Farm Security Administration

Reedsville

Allie Mae Burroughs

Sharecropper's family, Alabama

Evans was rarely involved with the development of his photographs, not spending much time in the darkroom
He was a professor for photography at the Yale University School of Art

Rating: ****
I like how he captures emotion through a simple family or portrait; his subjects are very interesting
