Summary

This major retrospective features the work of this pioneer of tabloid photography and showcases the best of Weegees jolting work from the 1930s to the 1960s. Grisly murders, tragic accidents, gawking crowds, along with intimate human-interest and high-society images, are all captured by Weegees flash. Interpretive essays complete this comprehensive volume.
