About Vivian Maier

Vivian Maier was a fascinating and unique woman whose photographic hobby turned her into a celebrated sensation posthumously. Her ingenious ability to capture life in 1950s New York City and Chicago—and also the decades that followed—has been honored in a traveling exhibition and now a documentary.
