Re: Vivian Maier, a street photographer discovered (with working link; sorry about that)

I may wonder about the hype surrounding Vivian Maier, but whenever I
actually see her work that goes away.  Back story aside, she was
simply a very fine photographer and left us an amazing and vast
photographic essay of Chicago as a legacy.

Christine et al,
I found out tonight that Vivian Maier spent 3 years in Downers Grove,
Illinois about .2 miles due south of my home.
(In the condos that back up to the Jewel Food store on Ogden Avenue.)
She was the care giver for a friend's elderly mother, and a reportedly
grumpy customer.
Regards,  Bob S.

Thanks for posting, Paul.  I had heard a little bit about this a while 
back.


Here's the link to a 9 minute piece on  Maier on Chicago Tonight, which 
ran on WTTW, channel 11 here in Chicago.  I just watched it; it's 
fascinating. The 1st American exhibition of her work will open in early 
January here in Chicago at the Cultural Center.  I'll attend and provide a 
report back for PDML.  Given the size of Maier's archive & its subject 
matter, the Department of Cultural Affairs in Chicago really should help 
with this project in a major way, and it seems to be doing what it can, 
but every art department in the city is strapped for money.  It will be 
interesting to see what the city continues to do for this lovely and 
important work.



Thanks again, Paul. Cheers, Christine
