This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UIC chapter.
In the early 50s and 60s, Vivan Maier, a noted street photographer roamed the parkways and alleys of Chicago capturing absolutely everything that this city (and others) had to offer. Much of my inspiration comes from her. Her work was recently discovered, and her visual qualities will be forever treasured. Keep an eye for a series of street photography coming soon! Enjoy the beginning works, and also take a look at her stuff and appreciate how times have changed! http://www.vivianmaier.com/
