Alec Soth shoots for the New York Times

In case you missed it: Renowned local photographer Alec Soth (who recently closed an exhibit at the Walker Art Center) shot the main feature in last Sunday’s New York Times Magazine. "Portraits From a Job-Starved City" is a feature on Rockford, Illinois and how it’s been affected by the recession.

See rest of the photos here and read the behind the scenes story on the Lens Blog. Way cool!
