Artist Of The Week

Vivian Maier
February 1, 1926 - April 21, 2009

 Born in the Bronx of New York and raised in France, Vivian Maier spent her youth in Europe till the war was over. She returned to America in 1951. Often called "Mary Poppins" she nannied three young Gensburg boys. She was not famous in her day, and did not have many friends that we are aware of. Never the less she left over 100,000 undeveloped 
negatives. 






These are some of her cameras



  These are some of her works                   












































Vivian Maier did what many, many, many, photographers fail to accomplish. She captured life and stories. Vivian Maier froze time with her camera.
