2. Eadweard James Muybridge was an English photographer important in the work in
photographic studies of motion and in motion-picture projection. He immigrated to the United
States as a young man but remained unknown until 1868, when his large photographs of
Yosemite Valley, California, made him world famous. Muybridge is known for his work on animal
locomotion in 1877 and 1878, which used multiple cameras to capture motion in stop-action
photographs.

3. Aaron Siskind was an American photographer who sometimes produced images in homage of
abstract expressionist painting. In his autobiography he wrote that he began his foray into
photography when he received a camera for a wedding gift and began taking pictures on his
honeymoon. He quickly realized the artistic potential this offered. He worked in both New York
City and Chicago.
