This week, Stauney dives into the mysterious story of Vivian Maier, a nanny who took tens of thousands of street photos throughout her life... and never showed anyone else a single picture. She spent her life taking pictures all throughout Chicago and New York, and even went on an international trip and documented the whole thing with her camera and remained unknown until someone bought her film in a storage unit auction, and quickly gained notoriety. Maier's images, which often showcase the people and architecture of urban America, have been praised for their composition, subject matter, and depth of emotion. Today, Maier is considered one of the most important street photographers of the 20th century.
