Deborah Dash Moore on “A License to Stare: Jewish Street Photographers of Midcentury New York”

How do you picture a city? What does looking through a camera’s eye let you see? As New York emerged from the Great Depression, a cohort of Jewish photographers, women and men, looked to document the streets of their hometown. Come and see what they saw during this lecture sponsored by the Jewish Studies Program of Vassar College. Deborah Dash Moore is Frederick G. L. Huetwell Professor of History and Professor of Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan. This event is free and open to the public.
