His first project was a documentary series on Buffalo's black churches Isay said he was amazed by the demanding schedules the Rogovins kept; he acknowledges taking a few naps while working with them org/ Sound Portraits: www o rg "These are the forgotten people," Rogovin says, surrounded by the black-and-white photographs at the exhibit " From the end of 2000 through the end of 2002, the Rogovins reconnected with their subjects while Isay and his team recorded oral histories He did the same in 1992 when he was 83 and recovering from heart surgery and prostate cancer "I photograph the forgotten ones Although he was first suspected of being a police officer or FBI agent, Rogovin eventually gained his subjects' trust, shooting 1,000 portraits over three years and always making sure to get a copy back to the person he shot Webster and other Rogovin subjects attended the show's opening earlier this month " â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: New-York Historical Society: http://www His pictures have documented the lives of the poor, the dispossessed, the working class â€â€? especially those living in a six-square-block neighborhood in Buffalo near his practice It will show through your lens," says Webster, explaining why the people of Buffalo's Lower West Side let Rogovin into their homes and lives " Rogovin never set out to be a photographer "That alone made me feel good, because as long as my mother was happy, I was happy Born in New York City in 1909, he moved to Buffalo in 1938 to practice as an optometrist Now, an exhibit at the New-York Historical Society and accompanying book are shining a spotlight on the 93-year-old Rogovin "Rogovin, named as top red in Buffalo, balks at nearly all queries," read the headline the next day in the Buffalo Evening News Photographer focuses on 'forgotten ones' Jul 23, 12:18 PM EST An optometrist by trade, Milton Rogovin built a life's work by looking through a lens at people who were invisible to others One of his subjects was Jimmy Webster, who morphs from a toddler leaning on his father's knee in a photo Rogovin shot in 1973 to a proud man wearing the clothes of a laborer in 2000 " In 1972, he turned his lens closer to home â€â€? the Lower West Side of Buffalo, one of the most impoverished neighborhoods in the state where Italian-Americans had been replaced after World War II by Puerto Ricans, blacks, American Indians and poor whites Their subjects genuinely adored them and respected them and felt like they've left a mark because of Anne and Milton," Isay said The two posed on a sofa â€â€? a young woman wearing sneakers and a sweater with a star on it, her arm wrapped around her daughter After being blacklisted in the communist scare of the 1950s and losing his practice, Rogovin dedicated his life to photography After returning from the war, he organized Buffalo's optometrists' union and served as a librarian in Buffalo's Communist Party "Instead of spending billions of dollars fighting a war in Iraq, I feel we should devote that money curing diseases and creating jobs and making a better life for people in this country Army Cruz was 3 when her mother rushed into the house and brushed her hair after meeting Rogovin outside He married Anne Setters in 1942 â€â€? the same year he bought his first camera and was inducted into the U In 1984, urged on by his wife, Rogovin returned to the neighborhood, tracked down his original subjects and rephotographed as many as he could 12 S " Isay believes Rogovin is a "major, major artist in our midst who is yet to be recognized" and deserves to be mentioned alongside famous documentary photographers like Jacob Riis and Walker Evans But Rogovin made her feel like a "superstar "The rich have their photographers," Rogovin often says "They were so energized by this work Their pictures were in books and galleries, not on police blotters A book called "Milton Rogovin: The Forgotten Ones" accompanies the exhibit "Remembering the Forgotten Ones: The Photographs of Milton Rogovin" opened last month at the historical society and will be on view until Oct Asked how her mother died, Cruz says bluntly that she drank herself to death Despite his age and the fact that his beloved wife of more than 60 years is suffering from brain cancer, Rogovin is still energetic and passionate about his calling and political beliefs In 1957, he was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee Whatever his historical relevance, Monica Cruz treasures Rogovin for personal reasons With his optometry business failing due to the negative publicity, Rogovin turned to photography â€â€? although he never studied it formally "The best way to photograph people is to have love in your heart nyhistory Rogovin returned three more times over the next 30 years â€â€? showing Cruz turning into a sullen teen, a smiling young adult and then a grown woman mourning the loss of her mother, whose portrait she cradled in the final series of the Quartet " "Milton made her feel like a real star Living on his wife's schoolteacher salary, Rogovin traveled to Appalachia, Chile and Mexico to take portraits of working people â€â€? always using an old Rolliflex, a bare bulb flash and occasionally a tripod Cataracts forced Rogovin to close his basement darkroom and sell his Rolliflex in 1997 "They were treated with dignity for once That made her feel real special," Cruz said as she gazed on a wall where the four photos are framed together But two years later, his vision restored by surgery, he bought back his camera and collaborated with Dave Isay, president of Sound Portrait Productions in New York City, to complete the series of neighborhood portraits, now titled "Quartets soundportraits "I am convinced this is the wrong decision," said Michael Copps, one of two Democrats on the commission who voted against the rules While passed by a bipartisan majority, the bill faces an uncertain future in the full Senate and strong resistance in the House fcc â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: FCC: http://www Critics say the rules will lead to mergers that could put just a few companies in control of what most people see, hear and read Commissioner Kevin Martin, a Republican, said the final rules have been edited to correct "weaknesses in reasoning FCC Finalizes Media Ownership Rules Jul 3, 10:11 AM EST The Federal Communications Commission on Wednesday released final versions of its media ownership rules, a move expected to trigger a response from lawmakers who already are fighting the measures " Last month, the Senate Commerce Committee voted for a bill that would overturn the FCC changes The agency's chairman, Michael Powell, said in a statement released with the 257-page document that the FCC succeeded in "building modern rules that take proper account of the explosion of new media outlets for news, information and entertainment, rather than perpetuate the graying rules of a bygone black and white era D The decision allowed individual companies to own television stations that reach in total nearly half the nation's viewers, and combinations of newspapers and broadcast stations in the same city Lawmakers, including Sen The Republican-controlle d FCC eased decades-old restrictions on ownership of newspapers and television and radio stations with a 3-2 party-line vote on June 2 , have said that after Congress is notified of the finished rules, they will introduce a little-used "resolution of disapproval" to reverse the FCC decision That measure would need majority approval in the Senate and House and the president's signature Byron Dorgan, D-N "It is wrong for the media industry, wrong for the public interest and wrong for America "These new rules are wrong headed and will result in more consolidation and less competition in broadcasting," Dorgan said in a statement " He said the changes address the sale of radio stations, restrictions on local television station ownership and inconsistencies in how markets are defined Gene Kimmelman of Consumers Union, which publishes Consumer Reports magazine, said the rules are designed to favor large media companies and his group may challenge the rules in court unless they are revised by the commission gov " His comments echoed those of many media companies that said changes were needed because the old restrictions hindered their ability to grow and compete in a market changed by cable television, satellite broadcasts and the Internet |
