Dear All,

I just picked up a self titled book by Yasuhiro Ishimoto- ISBN-0-86559-170-9. 
 I was not familiar with his work before now, but am very impressed.  Many of 
the photos were taken in Chicago (my town) around 1950 when he came to the 
Institute of Design to study with Harry Callahan.  There is a lot of very 
moving street photography, some 35mm, some 6x6, and some 4x5. His pictures 
are very clearly and deeply seen.  Am I the only one who was not aware of 
him?
