Photography

Photography: American Photographs by St. Louis-born photographer Walker Evans, 34, who has been working since 1935 for the U.S. Resettlement Administration (later the Farm Security Administration). New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) gave him its first one-man show in 1934, exhibiting pictures that he had taken since 1930 of 19th-century New England architecture. His book does not include his new picture Subway Passengers, New York, which will not be published until 1966.
