Thank you my friends!
Pmosull, I enjoyded it a lot, mainly about Alabama, in 1936, in the middle of the Great Depression, a record of the daily living of an average family of tenant farmers. Great portraits. I liked also the New York series and in the subway. He (Walker) said " The real thing that I'm talking about has purity and a certain severity, rigor, simplicity, directness, clarity, and it is without artistic pretension in a self-conscious sense of the world."
I will put some photos him for you enjoy too!
Glad you enjoyed it - also check out:

Google her name to find out more,
