Details:Baldwin Lee was born in Brooklyn, New York and raised in Manhattan’s Chinatown. He studied photography at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.) with Minor White. Later, he would receive an MFA from Yale School of Art, where he studied with Walker Evans. In 1982, Lee became the first Director of the Photography within the Art department at the University of Tennessee. The following year, he set out from Knoxville with a 4×5 view camera on a journey of self-discovery photographing his adopted homeland – the American South. Lee’s artistic goal was to partially re-trace and re-photograph the 1930s-40s routes made across the South by his mentor Walker Evans. Unlike Evans’ iconic depression-era photographs, Lee would eventually focus on documenting Black Americans, many of whom were living in poverty on the fringes of society. Over the next seven years, Lee traveled thousands of miles crisscrossing the South, making nearly 10,000 photographs – producing one of the most important visual documents of and about the American South in the past half century.
