Thursday, May 19, 5pm PDT “New Deal Photography Through the Lens of Arthur Rothstein”
With Dr. Annie Rothstein Segan
After graduating from Columbia University in 1935, Arthur Rothstein became the first photographer hired for the US Resettlement Administration (later, the Farm Security Administration). Between 1935 and 1943 he traveled across the nation recording some of the most significant documentary photographs ever taken of rural and small-town America.
Dr. Annie Rothstein Segan, Co-director of the Arthur Rothstein Legacy Project, will present an illustrated lecture focusing on her father’s work for the New Deal. Free. REGISTER
The Living New Deal documents the vast legacy the New Deal (1933-1942) left to America
and the spirit of public service that inspired it.
