"Lewis Wickes Hine (1874-1940) was . . . was instrumental in developing the social documentary genre and is probably best known for his photographs of immigrants at Ellis Island, child laborers, European war refugees, and industrial workers. . . . Hine also coined the term `photo story' to describe creative assemblages of photographs and text."--the publisher.
