Flo Fox, an indomitable photographer who was born blind in one eye and later lost her vision in the other from multiple sclerosis, which also eventually paralyzed her from the neck down, but who never stopped shooting what she called the “ironic reality ” of New York’s streetscape, died on March 2 in her Апартамент в Манхатън. She was 79.

Her son and only immediate survivor, Ron Ridinger, said the apparent cause was complications of pneumonia.

Inspired at 13 by a candid photograph of a street scene taken by Robert Frank, she asked her mother for a camera but was told to wait до момента в който тя приключи гимназия. След като приключи, тя проектира облекла за театралните и телевизионните реклами. За превръщане на тримерен аспект в плоска низина, защото това беше методът, по който автоматизирано видях. Всичко, което трябваше да направя, беше да рамкира идеално изображението. ”
