William Eugene Smith (December 30, 1918 - October 15, 1978) was an American photojournalist. He has been described as "perhaps the single most important American photographer in the development of the editorial photo essay." His major photo essays include World War II photographs, the visual stories of an American country doctor and a nurse midwife, the clinic of Albert Schweitzer in French Equatorial Africa, the city of Pittsburgh, and the pollution which damaged the health of the residents of Minamata in Japan. His 1948 series, Country Doctor, photographed for Life, is now recognized as "the first extended editorial photo story".

Brand new channel, and my new favorite. Don't know if the channel host reads comments... suggested photographers: André Kertész, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Ernst Haas.

Unique for his time. There were only a few photographers doing what he did and only a few who were as good. Every picture he made told a story and each had its own place in the history of photography. It’s a pleasure to see the diversity of his work. Well done for putting this collection together.

Some of his greatest work was done for Life Magazine.

This man had undiagnosed PTSD from his photography in the pacific theater. He landed on as many beaches with the marines and accompanied them throughout their jungle assaults. He has more beach landings than many pacific veterans. If that wasn’t enough he flew with the air corp during their bombing missions and also racked up more bombing missions than some pilots. The photos from these show you that he was in the front with the infantry armed with a camera. That participation in what he was photographing took its toll and in the postwar years you can see this in his behavior. They called him anti social and difficult to work with etc and I think we can attribute much of this to the toll on his psyche from the war.

I doubt there has been a greater documentary photographer than Smith

Извините, если ошибаюсь,но одна фотография разве этого фотографа,плачущий француз,наблюдающий отплытие не сдавшихся французских войск в Англию,это разве не Брессона фотография?

"Let Truth Be The Prejudice W. Eugene Smith: His Life And Photographs" is around between £13 up to about £81 second hand . It's a pretty inclusive and very readable, following from his youth to his death & and covers most of his projects, though Smith's work was massive and is still being uncovered where funding allows. hope that helps.

Absolutely absolutely fantastic photograph, extremely talented, and extremely difficult to work with. He almost single handed bankrupted Magnum.

@mikevanhoecke3516 8 месяцев назад

These photos should be in every world history textbook.

@mikevanhoecke3516 8 месяцев назад

History narratives try to give factual explanations for why events transpired. However, much of what man does is based more on feelings and is not so rational. Photos like these express what simply cannot be explained in words to minds seeking reason.

@dickgillberg Год назад

He was one of the best photographers that I like most, but I feel when I see the pictures like this all in a big chunk I miss the captions and the story of the essay he would like them to be in. Not drawn out one by one after another without content. No criticism at all just my wish. Thanks

"The Weeping Frenchman" at 4.12 was taken by Marcel de Renzis as far as I know.

Oh my goodness, the photo at 9:14 - the woman holding the skeleton of a boy - it’s the most haunting photo I’ve seen in a long time. Does anyone know the context of this one?

@Airhornsman 9 месяцев назад

That photo is from the essays on Minamata - a town in Japan that was the victim of terrible mercury pollution from a local industry. By the time this photo was taken, the cause of "Minamata Disease" had been known for more than a decade, but the company had been allowed to continue polluting for much of that time and the government was dragging its feet to agree to compensation to the victims. Eugene Smith's photographs, including this one, helped bring international awareness to the situation.

@BenSussmanpro 9 месяцев назад

@@AirhornsmanThanks for that explanation. Incredibly sad.
