It would be hard to imagine a better example of the "pure" American photographer than Frank Paulin. Born in Pittsburgh in 1926, he came of age in New York and Chicago, spent World War II in the U.S. Army in Europe, and came back to enroll in Chicago's Institute of Design, where his skills were further developed under the tutelage of Harry Callahan, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, and eventually in New York, under Alexey Brodovitch at the New School. By the 1950s, he was exhibiting at the pioneering Limelight gallery in New York.
