Street Stories: The Human Side of Homelessness with Photographer David Gordon

Come hear about the human side of homelessness from David Gordon, a photographer who's spoken with nearly 200 individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Boston. His work sheds light on how people living on the streets or in shelters end up there and how some manage to leave homelessness behind.  Nearly 30 of Gordon's photos from his on-the-street conversations are now in the permanent collections of the Boston Public Library, the Harvard Art Museums, the Rose Art Museum, and the Portland Museum of Art.
