HERO SPOTLIGHT: Diane Arbus

I just stumbled upon an Arbus image: the iconic 'Boy With Toy Hand Grinade'. I haven't laid eyes on this in years:

It instantly brought back memories of all those afternoons I would spend laying on the carpet in my High School Library pawing over her book.
Come to think of it, I'm so surprised my school even had that book!
I think I became somewhat obsessed with her work, probably because there were few other photography books. Anyways, I haven't thought about these images in so long, my love affair has rekindled.
I'mma go buy me some prints.
