Dorothea Lange, an amazing photographer, lived during 1895 to 1965 and was born in Hoboken, New Jersey. While she was a little girl, she use to skip boring classes in school and decided to just walk outside through the neighborhood and observe people and the things around her. Her father one day decided to walk out on the family, so she never had a father figure for most of her childhood and she became ill with polio when she was seven. However, throughout those years she was alive, she was able to take some great photos of real situations with real people. Her photos created an awareness among the other people, that what she photographed is other people's real lives. She made a huge contribution to the history of photography; therefore, many people are familiar with her great works of art.

Dorothea Lange is known for photographing depressing photos with rough places and people in them. During the Great Depression, she documented farm families, and migrant workers. Some of these photos were eye openers to some people to show how bad the economy was and was going to get. Also, she documented the change on the home front after the war. For example, she photographed Japanese neighborhoods, processing centers and camp facilities after Pearl Harbor. During the Dust Bowl era, a time of when many families migrated west in search of work, Dorothea Lange photographed a beautiful portrait of a lady and her child. The lady looks as if she is in agony and the surroundings around her are very dirty. This portrait portrayed to people that the suffering of the people are getting worse and worse. She photographed the bad working conditions that some people had to work in, the housing shortages, strikes, concentration camps and of some Native Americans. The housing shortages caused many people to work in shifts and to sleep in shifts as well. Dorothea Lange's photography mostly contained people and made a big impact throughout the history of photography and with people too.

Dorothea Lange's photos are very different from one another, but then again very similar. The thing I like about her photographs are that they are all mostly black and white. She has a wide range of values in most of her photos that she has taken. Also, her photos contain people in them, making them not boring to look at in my opinion. This helps me figure out what the photographer is trying to say in the photo, as if they are mad, happy, rich or poor. I can use some of the ideas taken from Dorothea's photos and intertwine them into my work, like having people and their expressions part of my photos. Also to fully grasp the ideas from Dorothea Lange's photos, I can simply change the photo into black and white. Every photographer has their different ideas about photography and making the picture look it's best; therefore, if people learning about these photographers learn and use their techniques, the next decade will have some new ideas to learn from as well. Dorothea Lange's unique ideas about photography clearly made a huge and lasting impact to the history of photography.
