Street People: Selections

by David J. Bookbinder

Overview

New York City, 1970s. Take a walk on the wild side.

1970s New York was a mecca for artists, writers, and musicians drawn to its vibrant energy and creative possibilities. It was also a place of grinding poverty and urban decay, where crime and violence were everyday realities and hope danced with despair.

In this curated selection of stories and photos from Street People: Invisible New York Made Visible, words and pictures intertwine to expose the grit and beauty of a city at its most raw and real.

Experience this classic, strikingly illustrated account of this turbulent period and its forgotten people.

Witness invisible New York made visible.
