Artist Talk: Howard Simmons in Conversation with Lee Bey
Join us for a conversation between photographer Howard Simmons and author and architecture critic Lee Bey.
From a trove of thousands of images photographed between the 1970s through the early 2000s, Howard Simmons’ exhibit "Stories My Camera Tells" features a selection of his favorite images of notable personalities and politicians, urban street scenes, and iconic images from photoshoots for Ebony magazine and his work in commercial photography.
The exhibit includes both celebrated images that document significant moments in American history as well as never-before-seen photography, accompanied by Simmons’ personal stories and accounts about his trailblazing work as one of the first Black photographers for the Chicago Sun-Times. The exhibit is on display in the Main Library Gallery through February 22.
