Photojournalism

The DAC Collection has special strengths in this area, including early examples by Thomas Annan (1); James Wallace Black (Franklin Street, Boston after the Great Fire), and Jacob Riis (2 New York slum subjects); by FSA artists cited above; and works by Margaret Bourke-White (Fort Peck and Roosevelt's Dressing Table, both for Life magazine); Alfred Eisenstadt (2, including V-J Day at Times Square); Orville Emmons (10 Mexican subjects); Gjon Mili (1); Gordon Parks (1); Eugene Richards (2 from Homeless in America series); W. Eugene Smith (12); Lou Stouman (Times Square); Weegee (The Critic); Max Yavno (2, including Muscle Beach); and war subjects by Robert Capa (1 Spanish Civil War); Arthur Rothstein (4 WW II); Eugene Smith (Saipan); Harvey Weber (12 WW II); and Larry Burrows (2 Vietnam).

This information was accurate as of 1997, but since then it has been integrated into the DAC's illustrated collections pages. The museum keeps this legacy page online for the convenience of those who may have bookmarked it or who find it via a link from another site or a search engine, but we recommend that most users consult our current collections pages.
