Flash by Christopher Bonanos
The Making of Weegee the Famous
A vivid biography of Weegee (Arthur Fellig), the nocturnal news photographer who prowled 1930s–40s New York with a police scanner and a blinding flash, transforming crime scenes and street life into stark, unforgettable images. It traces his rise within the tabloid world, the ethical ambiguities of his methods, his later shift to celebrity and experimental work, and the lasting impact his gritty style had on photojournalism and popular culture.
