An amazing story-Vivian Maier-Street Photographer

Post by JCollins1964 »

Here is the amazing story of Vivian Maier, a Chicago nanny who took more than 100,000 photos during her lifetime but never showed it to anyone. Now that she's gone and her photos have been discovered, some say she may rank among the top street photographers of the 20th century.

That is pretty cool. They now need to make a website showing all of her photographs!
