Eugene Smith is considered one of the most important photographers of the 20th century, particularly for his contributions to the development of the photo essay as a storytelling form. Smith began his career as a photographer for newspapers and magazines in the late 1930s, and later served as a war correspondent during World War II. He became renowned for his emotionally charged and poignant images that captured the realities of war and human suffering. After the war, Smith worked for Life magazine, where he produced some of his most iconic photo essays, such as "Country Doctor" and "Spanish Village". He was also known for his work on the devastating effects of mercury poisoning in the Japanese fishing village of Minamata, which he documented in a powerful photo essay that brought international attention to the issue.Smith's dedication to his craft was legendary, and he was known for his tireless pursuit of the perfect image. He often spent weeks or even months on a single project, and his intense commitment to his work sometimes led to conflicts with his editors and employers." . "Let Truth Be The Prejudice documents the life and work of W. Eugene Smith, a man whose work expanded the range and depth of photography, bringing new aesthetic and moral power to the photo essay. Smith was born in 1918 in Wichita, Kansas, and raised according to traditional American values, believing in the nobility of America and the injustice of war. He began taking pictures with his mother's camera while still a boy and continued this practice throughout his schooling. In 1937 his burning ambition took him to New York City, where his rise as a professional photographer was meteoric."--Amazon. §Photographers -- United States -- Biography. Photography, Artistic.
