In the 1930s, the U.S. government famously sent photographers across the country to
document on film the need for federal assistance in rural areas. Dorothea Lange?s
well-known image Migrant Mother came from this effort, along with thousands of other
photographs. Ben Shahn, Russell Lee, and Marion Post Wolcott contributed to this compelling
body of images. As primary photographers for the Farm Security Administration (FSA)
in the state of Louisiana, the three took more than 2,600 photographs, recording the
modest homes, family gatherings, and working lives of citizens across the state. In
Images of Depression-Era Louisiana, Bryan Giemza and Maria Hebert-Leiter curate more
than 150 of those photographs, offering a riveting collection that captures this pivotal
time in Louisiana?s history
