Was doing a little web whacking on one of my fave photographers recently and dug up this article from June. I missed it at the time:
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/03/arts/design/03muse.htmlMy favourite part is the quote from one of Weegee's letters back home from an assignment in Paris, ?Looks like the picture won?t be finished on time. It rains every day and we can?t find 2 midgets, so it looks like I?ll be here at least 2 more weeks.? - you can almost hear the Tom Waits music in the background.
Anyway, fancy finding a case full of Weegee's prints, clothes and letters in a KY yard sale!!
