Johns Hopkins University Press Presents Baltimore Lives: The Portraits of John Clark Mayden

Baltimore Lives gathers 101 of John Clark Mayden’s best photographs in print for the first time. Taken between 1970 and 2012, these photos illuminate the experiences of life throughout the predominantly African American city, capturing the relaxed intimacy of community, family, and the comfort of home in contrast to the harsh sting of social injustice, poverty, and crime. John will be in conversation with Gabrielle Dean, William Kurrelmeyer Curator of Rare Books and Manuscripts at the Sheridan Libraries.
