Review:
"Reprinted for the first time, this is the most comprehensive collection of the photographer's work ever published. It includes portraits from her early years as a fashionable studio photographer as well as classic images that established her as the preeminent documentary artist of her time. 'Dorothea Lange: Photographs of a Lifetime' captures - like all of her work - the extraordinary in the commonplace, with rare candor, compassion, and dignity.”
