If you do nothing else this week, you should watch the video of Chicago Tonight's telling of the Vivian Maier story. A terrific presentation of one of the absolute best stories in American photography from the decade now ending. Or American and French photography, I should say, since Maier was Franco-American."</em></p><p><object width="500" height="308" data="http://player.theplatform.com/ps/player/pds/LKuixhzDPK&amp;pid=A1hO97qcWo7ViDL_rWniVH2LakYxNa7J" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><param name="src" value="http://player.theplatform.com/ps/player/pds/LKuixhzDPK&amp;pid=A1hO97qcWo7ViDL_rWniVH2LakYxNa7J" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p><p>Take 10 minutes out of your day and watch the above video - it's fascinating stuff! The pictures are incredible - such perfectly captured moments of such a long time ago.</p>

That's fantastic photography in my opinion.

Sad end to the story though.
