Jacob Riis documented the lives of urban poor children – but what about kids in the country? Pamela Riney-Kehrberg, professor at Iowa State, will share the similarities and differences.

 

This program is presented in association with the exhibition "Jacob Riis: How the Other Half Lives." The exhibition is supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities, with additional support from the Danish Home in Croton-on-Hudson, New York.
