...1930s to the 1950s, and will showcase over 100 of his rarely seen images, including his often gruesome tabloid-documentarist style: murder victims sprawled on boardwalks covered with bloody drop cloths; crime-scene chalk drawings on sidewalks of bodies since removed. One can easily imagine him driving around the dark streets of New York City of old, waiting for his self-installed police radio to propel him into action.
