Photography
Arthur Rothstein was an American photographer born in 1915 who documented rural America during the Great Depression and World War II as a Farm Security Administration photographer. His stark black-and-white images captured agricultural hardship, migrant labor, and social conditions across the American South and Midwest. Rothstein later worked as a photojournalist and staff photographer for major publications, extending his documentary practice into the postwar era. His work established a foundational visual language for American social documentary photography.
