Filmmaker and self-taught photographer Danny Lyon b. 1943 works in the style of photographic New Journalism. "Personal participation in the lives of his subjects is vital component to Danny Lyon's photography. His subjects often deviate from societal norms yet he is dedicated to communicating their character and sensibility honestly sympathetically and nonjudgmentally; for him this requires firsthand knowledge of their experiences. Whereas in his earlier work he seemed to withhold his own personality from the images in order to emphasize that of his subjects his recent work includes more of himself. Lyon has consistently produced effective sincere documents of real people's lives that have inspired many photographers since the 1960s." - Lisa Hostetler International Center of Photographer.
