Duke Libraries > Digital Collections        USA

From the mid 1950s through the early 1980s,
William Gedney photographed
throughout the United States, in India, and in Europe.
From street scenes outside his Brooklyn apartment
to the daily chores of unemployed coal miners,
from the indolent lifestyle of hippies in Haight-Ashbury
to the sacred rituals of Hindu worshippers,
Gedney recorded the lives of others with remarkable clarity and poignancy.
