I chose Lewis Wickes Hine who took this picture as well as the "Breaker Boys," photo 1911. Here you see the picture of a young boy shining the shoes of a man. The work that Hine did, eventually passed child labor laws and changed lives of American families. The reason I choose him was because it was his photographs that interested me most. I thought they had a great deal of importance to our country in there time and for all time. Even in the history of photography his pictures are referred to as ground-breaking. I had a lot of appreciation for
Lewis Wickes Hines' work.
