-Frank was Swiss born and in 1959 released a book called The Americans
-His book contains pictures from all aspects of what he considered to be American life
-When it was released there was a lot of negative thoughts because the book showed people that the media never covered.
-He took pictures with b&w film
-Frank enjoyed photographing at night, and experimented with using grainy film, blurs, and imprecise focus
-In his book he only put one picture per page
-I like his pictures because they make you feel like your in the moment that he was in
