    Hi All,
    Is anyone here a Dorothea Lange fan? I've just recently noticed her work and I really like it.She was really talented.

    I have always enjoyed her work!
    About five years ago, I saw a small exhibit of her work her in Utah at BYU; it was downstairs in one of the smaller galleries, while upstairs in the main gallery was HUGE exhibit of Maynard Dixon's paintings.
    Maynard Dixon as you may know was her husband.

    hi mtbbrian!
    I haven't seen too much of her work yet, but the little i've seen has really impressed me. I've odrered a book from the library ( i can't remember the name of it right now) but it has almost all of her photos in it. I can't wait until it arrives.
