Kosti Ruohomaa : The Photographer Poet, Paperback / softback Book

Kosti Ruohomaa : The Photographer Poet Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Acclaimed photographer Kosti Ruohomaa is widely known for his photographs of hard scrabble Yankees in mid-century Maine.

No one was more acutely aware than Ruohomaa that his work was capturing a way of life that was rapidly fading.

Before his work in Maine, however, Ruohomaa started out with Disney, then went on to become a freelance photographer for the Black Star Agency, where he was a regular contributor to Life, National Geographic, Look, and Ladies Home Journal.

His true passion, however, was documenting the lives of the people of Maine.

In this biography by curator Deanna Bonner-Ganter, of the Maine State Museum, Kosti's life and work is made relevant and important to an audience that may be unfamiliar with his work.
