Title
Social Photography
Description
Text of a brief talk given by acclaimed photographer of American working life - and famously, child industrial labor - during the first half of the twentieth century. Thoughts on the role and function of the photographer and "social photography" in light of Hine's thoughts on the injustices endured by urban children in poverty, at work. Included in a 1980 book of essays on photography, with a brief biographical introduction from the editor. Originally published as "Social Photography ; How the Camera May Help in the Social Uplift" in the "Proceedings of the National Conference of Charities and Correction at the Thirty-sixth Annual Session held in the City of Buffalo, New York, June 9-16, 1909," Alexander Johnson, ed., (Fort Wayne, Indiana: Press of Fort Wayne, 1909).
