Living Proof
David Alan Harvey
In 2005, David Alan Harvey began photographing local emcees in the Bronx River Projects. Harvey traveled to Hollywood and then went global to document a culture a mere three decades in existence.

Beautiful work. 'Stolen' from right under my nose. I should've been on this one. Much respect to you my friend.

David,I look forward to hearing you talk and seeing you at the LOOK3 workshops.
You took pictures of my daughters as we were leaving Richmond years ago and I have followed your career. I have been involved with a photographic exhibit of which I was the curator, Families of Abraham,208 photographs of Jewish, Christian and Muslim families. The exhibit is traveling and now in Atlanta.

I enjoyed that a lot.
Not entirely on the same line, but a piece on a local Ky studio studio a fellow student did.

I'd also like to know the name of that Palestinian group.

Watched it twice!
Perfect timing for such a great essay, particularly how hip hop is currently under fire.
-An eternal fan of Hip Hop, and a new fan of yours.

What a fantastic essay. It is fasinating to see the real roots of a massive culture in juxtaposition with what it is today.
I am dissapointed National Geographic didnt use more of Harvey's informative images in the recent article on hip hop.

I love how all the elememts gel together, how you've traced the history of the cultrue and blended it in beautifully with the present. Perfect demonstration of story telling.
