Buffalo, New York, is home to Milton Rogovin, a photographer who work has created a searing portrait of life on the city's West side over three decades of transition. His haunting portraits depict an often overlooked aspect of the country's social history: the lived experience of working-class communities whose cultural expression and everyday struggles rarely make the day's headlines or wind their way into the chapters of history.

Milton Rogovin: The Forgotten Ones is a celebration of Rogovin's life work, published in conjunction with an exhibit at the New-York Historical Society. The book includes a selection of single portraits in Buffalo from the 1950s through the 1980s and eighteen remarkable "Quartets," sequences of pictures and interview text, tracing the same subjects through four decades.
