What do you know about the man in the picture
Bill Cunningham (1929-2016）
was an American fashion photographer famous for his candid photography, in particular that taken on the streets of New York. As a fashion journalist in his early career, his photography caught the attention of an American newspaper, for which he reported from 1978 until his death in 2016. Shunning material wealth throughout his long and successful life, Cunningham's philosophy was “If you don't take their money, they can't tell you what to do, kid.”
