A full house within the Levi’s© Photo Workshop on Thursday evening was expanded by over 30,000 people on Facebook who experienced Bruce Davidson’s guided tour through his last 50 years of photography. The Q&A portion of the evening was lively, with Workshop programming director Emma Reeves fielding questions both in person and online. Bruce has clearly influenced many generations of photographers, and it was wonderful to see a vibrant and diverse crowd gathering to celebrate him and his work. After a brief book signing the Workshop staff presented Bruce with a Falcon candid camera from their vintage camera rentals area, which he’d told them was one of the first cameras he ever used. He’s tracking down film for it now, always in pursuit of the next photograph.
