Vivian Maier, Street Photographer

I found this very interesting piece on Vivian Maier. She was a nanny that would do street photography during her time off. She had an incredible eye and took absolutely wonderful pictures that she never shared. It took the auctioning off of her storage locker to bring her work to life.

What a find! I hope the young man who has the photos is well-rewarded for his work.

I think in addition to the gallery shows he is going to make a book. I really hope it works out. You are right, he has invested so much time and money he deserves to get something back.
