Amy, Cape Cod by Diane Arbus (1957)

One of my favorite blogs is The Year in Pictures written by James Danziger. If you love to read about the back stories of famous images, then go directly to Danziger's blog and see his latest post twins, etc.. It is a remarkable story about some of the people who were the subjects of several iconic Diane Arbus photographs, including Twins and Boy With Grenade. Both of these images are haunting and have can be interpreted a thousand different ways, so it is really fascinating to get the model's actual perspective on the shoot.
