Give a brief description of the movement, photographer, or term you researched. How are they significant to the history of photography (50-75 words)?
Alfred Stieglitz was an American photographer and modern art promoter who was instrumental over his fifty-year career in making photography an accepted art form. In addition to his photography, Stieglitz is known for the New York art galleries that he ran in the early part of the 20th century, where he introduced many avant-garde European artists to the U.S. He was married to painter Georgia O'Keeffe.

Write a short personal reaction to the movement, photographer or term you researched. What is interesting or not interesting about the work (50 – 75 words).
Alfred Stieglitz is an amazing photographer. He captures Europe. Especially The terminal picture. I feel like I'm there watching the people, hearing the noises. It gives u a sense of how dirty the streets were back then as well.
