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.
