Rae Russel’s camera is as agile as the street gymnasts she catches here in Brooklyn, 1948, suspending the scene at just the right moment. Russel was a member of the esteemed Photo League, a New York collective who saw photography as a means for social good. Producing frank and tender documentary work, Russel also played her part in the League’s comprehensive education programme, teaching photography to young people who hadn’t touched a camera before. | 📷: Rae Russel | Brooklyn, NYC | 1948 | #GettyImagesArchive #ThrowbackThursday
