James Agee died today – 53 years ago

Author (of “A Death in the Family”) James Rufus Agee was born on November 27, 1909 in Knoxville, Tennessee. He said, “It is a peculiar part of the good photographer's adventure to know where luck is most likely to lie in the stream, to hook it, and to bring it in without unfair play and without too much subduing it." [Or you could just buy a digital camera with a lot of memory and click, click, click away.]... Mr. Agee died on May 16, 1955 in New York City, New York.
