Deeply moving photographic homage to Algren and his city.

Art Shay and Nelson Algren met in 1949, when Shay was a reporter for Life magazine. He followed Algren around with a camera, gathering pictures for a photo-essay piece he was pitching to the magazine. Life didn''t pick up the article, but Shay and Algren became fast friends. Algren gave Shay''s camera entrance into the back-alley world of Division Street, and Shay captured Algren''s poetry on film. This is the compilation of hundreds of photos - many recently discovered and published here for the first time - that make up a moving homage to the writer and his city.
