Description
They met in 1949 when Art was a reporter for Life. Shay followed Algren around with a camera, gathering pictures for a photo-essay piece he was pitching to the magazine. Life didn t pick up the article, but Shay and Algren became fast friends. Algren gave Shay s camera entrance into the back-alley world of Division Street, and Shay captured Algren s poetry on film. They were masters chronicling the same patch of ground with different tools.
