One photographer that particularly influenced me was Robert Frank. In his book, The Americans, he showed what it was like to be an American in 1958. His pictures show people; young and old, rich and poor, black or white. His pictures also show objects; gas stations, and barbershops. He put this book together to remind Americans who they are. Robert Frank is considered one of the most influential photographers of the century and many photographers would say their artwork is based on him. I believe that some of my artwork is influenced by Robert Frank. I enjoy taking pictures of normal, everyday things in life; the little things that are the most important to us. I believe that Robert Frank and I have that in common.
