Twentieth century Pittsburgh–from the 1950′s to 1994–comes to life in this collection of compelling images by master photographer Clyde Hare. 165 color and b/w photos reveal Pittsburgh’s revitalization during Renaissance I, the heroics of steel-making, the beauty and grandeur of the landscape, and the variety and richness of everyday life through a period of dramatic change. Alan Van Dine’s introduction elucidates Clyde Hare’s career and his important role in the development of documentary photography. Concise information on each photograph is contained in a “Photographic Notes” section prepared by Walter C. Kidney.
