Forgot to mention last week's book

Last week I brought Cindy Sherman to class.  Though nobody saw her!!!  Only me and my backpack.  She is such an entertaining photographer.  Sometimes when you can't find a model, you are it.  Sort of, a stretch, like a quarter back when he has to run because there is no receiver.  I don't know if Sherman's inspiration was herself, or became herself out of desperation.  Anyway, it doesn't matter.  Great ideas, and images.

I'm posting a photograph by a photographer that was recently discovered.  She was never known during her life.  It is a fascinating story about Vivian Maier.
