I saw this story a couple of months ago in the news. Her work is just wonderful! What a story!

[Amy Grinstead]

thanks for this link - i'd heard of her but never heard the full story. her work is amazing, i hope he does manage to get it to some big exhibitions so lots of people can see. her photos remind me of henri cartier-bresson, but obviously american and more modern. thanks for sharing!

[Sarah Horsfall]

Neat story! There was an artist challenge devoted to her a few months ago, which was my first exposure to her photography.

Amazing images! I had seen the artist challenge. Usually, I research the artist, even though I rarely participate in the artist challenges. I was busy at the time Vivian's challenge was posted, so I did not research her. I will definitely follow any news about her photos from now on.

Absolutely wonderful photographs! Thanks for sharing these links.

@sourkraut I must have missed that challenge somehow. There are some great shots on that thread.

@payyourrates I love her work. I supported the making of the book and film through Kickstarters and received two tickets to the premier documentary film opening next year in Chicago. Looking forward to seeing her show in NYC in December.

@seattle That's so cool. I think I'm going to buy the book.
