Vivian Maier 1926-2009





The fascinating story of the nanny who always carried her camera and secretly produced thousands of incredible street photographs....
Vivian Maier was born in New York in 1926, apparently she was a private, determined and opinionated person who lived in Chicago,
Her beyond amazing photography collection was recently discovered at an auction in Chicago which includes over 100,000 medium format negatives, thousands of prints and countless undeveloped rolls of film that contain all of what she discovered through her personal adventures and travels throughout her life. An heartening story and inspiring collection of photographs.
Some of her photos will be on display at the 'London Street Photography Festival' in July this year.
