Abstract

Tells in words and pictures the real life story of Dorothea Lange, a young girl with polio who vividly sees life around her, noticing things others do not. At age eighteen she decides she has to share what she sees with the world and becomes a documentary photographer. Her pictures tell the stories of the homeless, the jobless and the poor.
