Walker Evans

b. 11/3/1903   d. 4/10/1975

American photographer made famous by his work for the Farm Security Administration documenting the effects of the Great Depression. In 1941 Walker Evans co-published, along with James Agee, the ground-breaking book Let Us Now Praise Famous Men. It was a series of photos by Evans along with accompanying text by Agee, detailing the two's journey through the rural south during the Great Depression. Its detailed account of three farming families paints a deeply moving portrait of rural poverty.
