The Southern Photographer: Eudora Welty on the Segregated South

The Southern Photographer: Eudora Welty on the Segregated South

I think what you posted about Eudora Welty's photographs are so true.  She lived in the South and understood it.  She was comfortable as she photographed and you can see the naturalness and spontaneity  of ordinary daily life that she captured of the segregated South.  And the way you contrast with the other FSA photographers makes so much sense.  I never quite thought about it that way.



Really appreciate your blog.  It keeps me abreast with what is happening in the South.  Betty Press
