Discover: Vivian Maier

© Vivian Maier

John Maloof recently purchased more than 40,000 mostly medium format negatives at an auction for items from an unpaid storage locker. He soon discovered he had found the life's work of a hereto unknown Chicago street photographer name Vivian Maier. The work spans most of the 1950s to the 1970s. Vivian passed away on April 22, 2009. Her photographs are some of the more accomplished street images I have seen and deserve attention. You can see more of here work on John Maloof's Vivian Maier blog.
