Description:
In the mid-1930s, Margaret Bourke-White adapted her style to changes in photojournalistic practices and thought, working in a more socially committed documentary mode. She replaced the heroic grandeur found in her earlier images of booming industrial power with a candidness born of her contact with the homeless and poor during the Great Depression. Here Bourke-White depicts with great irony a line of hungry, displaced people waiting for food in front of a billboard pronouncing the United States' status as having the "world's highest standard of living." (from the book, "1000 Photo Icons: George Eastman House" published by Taschen.)
