Danny Lyon Galveston, TX April 1973 Young mother and child in Galveston, Texas. This is one of a series of 21 black and white photographs. They document the environments remaining from the 19th century in terms of the architecture, commerce and lifestyles. The pictures also compare the contemporary city showing displacement of the unique by the ordinary and noting current urban problems. The pictures show a region and its uniqueness in people and architecture in East Texas which is still a part of the South.
Danny Lyon New York City, NY July 1974 Youngsters on the July 4th Holiday at the Kosciusko swimming pool in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant District, New York City. Inner city residents enjoy using this intelligently located pool. The inner city today is an absolute contradiction to the mainstream America of gas stations, expressways, shopping centers and tract homes. It is populated by Blacks, Latins, and the White poor.
