Voices Silenced, Faces Preserved by Milton Rogovin. Milton was one of those people who I met when I first started taking Images (way before I could Make Images). He and his wife Anne were part of the "street" of the Lower West Side of Buffalo (Allentown section) that I lived in. A gentle man with a warmly smiling wife always at his side, they captured the essence and dignity of the poeple. I learned much about "seeing" and "feeling images" from this quiet steadfast gentleman.To my great pleasure, afew days ago, I saw an article about my old friend in the New York Times Art & Design section today. I share it with you and hope you then look for Milton's other works you will be visually rewarded by the man.Source: New York Times, by Randy Kennedy, August 9,2009
