Among other things it includes a more sensitive and positive discussion of Frank’s later photographic work than I’ve given. I think I found it too annoying to give it proper consideration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as Coleman’s thoughts, in the comments there is a link to an online version of the 1977 book ‘Photography Within the Humanities<\/a>‘ where Frank’s April 1975 interview at Wellesley College was first published. The book is an interesting record of a series of talks when ten people connected with photography were each invited to the college on a different day to speak. Among the ten as well as Frank were John Morris<\/em>, Paul Schuster Taylor<\/em> the partner of Dorothea Lange<\/em>, John Szarkowski,<\/em> Gene Smith<\/em>, Susan Sontag <\/em>and Irving Penn.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
