Mark's empathy and compassion toward her subjects make her work exceptionally evocative and powerful. These works provide an opportunity to re-examine the lives of those around us, the hardships and inner worlds hidden to the superficial eye, which Mark's lens and spirit allowed her to capture., Its incredible scope represents the dedication of a photographer whose work is imbued with a palpable compassion, and the generosity of a subject willing to unclothe realities of life on the margins of society. - CNN Mark's black-and-white updated images of her subjects, accompanied by their words, are a testament to an enduring trust and empathy. - The Boston Globe Her half-century of documentary work and portraiture made Mark, who died in May at age 75, one of the most important photographers of her era. - Los Angeles Times It is one of the most striking and moving of this season's photography books. - Los Angeles Times Mark's empathy and compassion toward her subjects make her work exceptionally evocative and powerful.

Synopsis
In 1988, Mary Ellen Mark first published her poignant document of a fiercely independent group of homeless and troubled youth who made their way on the streets of Seattle as pimps, prostitutes, panhandlers, and small-time drug dealers. Streetwise received critical acclaim for its honest portrayal of life on the streets and introduced us to individuals who were not easily forgotten, including "Tiny" (Erin Charles)-a thirteen-year-old prostitute with dreams of a horse farm, diamonds and furs, and a baby of her own. Since meeting Tiny thirty years ago, Mark has continued to photograph her, creating what has become one of Mark's most significant and long-term projects. Now forty-three, Tiny has ten children and her life has unfolded in unexpected ways, which together speak to issues of poverty, class, race, addiction, and other ongoing and pressing issues. Aperture is pleased to release a significantly expanded iteration of this classic monograph, presenting the iconic work of the first edition along with Mark's moving and intimate body of work on Tiny, most of which is previously unpublished. Texts and captions are drawn from conversations between Tiny and Mary Ellen Mark, as well as with Mark's husband, the filmmaker Martin Bell, who made the landmark film, Streetwise. Tiny: Streetwise Revisited provides a powerful education about one of the more complex sides of American life, as well as insight into the unique relationship sustained between artist and subject for over thirty years., In 1988, Mary Ellen Mark published a poignant document of a fiercely independent group of homeless and troubled youth living in Seattle as pimps, prostitutes, panhandlers and small-time drug dealers.

    Brand new, perfect Lancôme Clarifique Dual Toner arrived yesterday. It is just as described and in perfect condition without the box. It was wrapped it lots of bubble wrap so it wouldn’t move in the shipping box This bottle was glass so the packaging was important! The price with shipping was an excellent price I’m very pleased with this seller and I would purchase from them again!
