11 Best Bookish HUMANS OF NEW YORK Picture-Stories
In 2010, photographer Brandon Stanton set on a photographic journey. According to the Humans of New York website, Stanton’s original goal was to “photograph 10,000 New Yorkers on the street, and create an exhaustive catalogue of the city’s inhabitants.” Eight years later, the project is still going strong and posts regularly on Facebook. Naturally, some of the New Yorkers (and others that Stanton has captured around the world) are readers just like you—perhaps you’re even one of them! I’ve pulled together the best bookish Humans of New York pictures. Take a look at these bookish New Yorkers.
