Accomplished Street Photographer Discovered Posthumously: Vivian Maier

I wanted to make sure members had heard about Vivian Meier and her recently discovered life's work of black and white street photography. A blog about it is also available. I believe a show of her work has just opened in Chicago and a video documentary of her interesting and secretive life are in progress. Many rolls of undeveloped med. format film are still being carefully processed and many of her 100,000 images are yet to be seen.

  1. Thank you very much Ron for posting about this remarkable story and impressive collection of street photography. To see some very good examples of her work I suggest a visit to Lens, the New York Times Photography blog.
