“My eyes search for people who are grateful for life, people who forgive, whose doubts have been removed, who understand the truth, whose enduring spirit is filled by such piercing light as to provide their present and future with hope.”~ Louis Faurer Louis was one of the greatest, least well-known important street photographers of the 20th Century. Real success seems to have eluded him his whole life unlike many of his great contemporaries like Robert Franck and William Klein. Even Diane Arbus was his student. He died penniless in a nursing home on the Upper West Side in New York in 2001.His personality was quirky to say the least but his talent was undeniable.
