Just dropping in here to add that Baldwin Lee was an excellent photography professor, and is one of the big reasons I kept on doing photography as a semi-pro hobby long after college. A bright, kind, and enthusiastic man in everything he pursued. Wild seeing his name randomly come up here!
- throwanem 4y agoI'm glad it did! I know plenty about what white poverty in Mississippi looked like in those years, on account of growing up in it. Of black poverty I know next to nothing, because it was Mississippi, after all, and one wasn't encouraged. I hate that I need someone from nowhere nearby to show it to me, and at this late date besides - but I'm glad he was there to do it, and that he collected his work into the book a copy of which is on its way to me now.
