A car being decorated for a Knights of the KKK meeting. Baldwin recalls: ‘Driving through rural Georgia in 1966 I found, to my amazement, cars being decorated to go to a Knights of the Ku Klux Klan meeting.
I stopped, overcame my fear, and got permission to follow them to the meeting and a cross rising on the steps of the County Courthouse in Reidsville, Georgia, where I completed the photography that night.’

Frederick Colburn Baldwin / Fred Baldwin 1929-2021
photographer who documented wildlife, the civil rights movement and American poverty and helped promote fellow photographers from Latin America, Africa and Asia
(...)
Mr. Baldwin displayed extraordinary physical courage as a photographer and a deep empathy that allowed him to get inside the lives of the people he documented.
He carried a camera while serving as a Marine rifleman in the Korean War, received two Purple Hearts and survived the brutal 17-day Battle of Chosin Reservoir in 1950.
His unit was photographed by David Douglas Duncan of Life magazine, which influenced Mr. Baldwin in his career path.
In the 1950s and early ’60s, he photographed Sami reindeer herders in Sweden and Norway, polar bears near the North Pole and marlin in the waters off Mexico for Sports Illustrated, Esquire and National Geographic.
