Mary Ellen Mark – Streetwise (1988)

Streetwise is an in-depth and personal look into the lives of teenagers surviving on the streets of Seattle, working as prostitutes, drug dealers, pimps, and panhandlers. The book began as an article for “Life” magazine, written by Cheryl McCall with Mary Ellen Mark’s photographs, and was then made into an Academy Award-nominated film of the same name, directed by Mark’s husband Martin Bell.
