He was first and  foremost a celebrated photojournalist and fine art  photographer whose work, collected and exhibited worldwide,  is emblematic of American culture. Here, he reaches into  the corridors of his memory and recounts the people and  events that shaped him: from growing up poor on the Kansas  prairie to withstanding the winters of Minnesota to living  on the edge of starvation in Harlem during the Depression.  He more than survived the challenges and crises of his  life; he thrived and became one of the most celebrated and  diversely talented figures in American culture.--From  publisher description.},
