4.0
Written in an effortless style, this book is a must-read for any fan of photography who wasn't there to hang out with Robert Frank and the like in 1950's Greenwich Village.
Limelight was the first gallery to show only photography and became a nightly destination for the city's cultural scene. Helen Gee recalls her struggles of running a business while being a single mother, her personal dealings with many great photographers (barely known at the time), and her fondness for the medium of photography. She captures the City's vibe in a way that makes you wish, if not feel like, you were there.
