Episode 7: Diane Arbus and the Monster Club

from The Expert Eye · host The Expert Eye

In this episode, I tell the story of how I got to research a very rare photograph by Diane Arbus that she took while on assignment for a magazine called Famous Monsters of Filmland.  The photograph features 5 youngsters on the stoop of their rowhouse in Queens, sporting monster masks.  It sold for $50,000 in 2019.  Why is this photo so important?  I'll fill you in.
