Sam's great research project on Eve Arnold

Born, April 21, 1912
From Russian-Jewish immigrant parents
Middle of nine children
Her interest in photography began in 1946 while working in a New York City photo-finishing plant

Died 2012 at the age of 99





I like these pictures because I feel they really represent the time period she is capturing, and the use of light in a black and white photo to give it extra gloom. I also feel the pictures have big message in both of them, seeing how both of them are single women, leaning over with alcohol by their side, again, it really gives the sense of the time.
