Photography: Vivian Maier

Vivian Dorothea Maier was an American amateur street photographer, who was born in New York City, but grew up in France. After returning to the United States, she worked for approximately forty years as a nanny in Chicago, Illinois. For those unfamiliar with the story of this peculiar artist I strongly recommend going through her bio (http://www.vivianmaier.com/about-vivian-maier/)

It seems that there is a documentary/movie in the works about her life and her work.

I enclose some of my favorite shots.
