Milton Rogovin 1909-2011
social documentary photographer who built a life's work by looking through a lens at people who were invisible to others.
Rogovin's pictures documented the lives of the poor, the dispossessed, the working class — in particular those living in a six-square-block neighborhood in Buffalo near his optometry practice.
His first project was a documentary series on Buffalo's black churches.
Living on his wife's schoolteacher salary, he traveled to Appalachia, Chile and Mexico to take portraits of working people — always using an old Rolleiflex, a bare bulb flash and occasionally a tripod. http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2011/01/18/us/AP-US-Obit-Rogovin.html
