Steve Schapiro: Being Everywhere

Q&A with director Maura Smith at 7:00

Over six decades, photographer Steve Schapiro bore witness to some of the most significant social and cultural moments in modern American history.

Shot shortly before his passing by filmmaker Maura Smith, Steve Schapiro: Being Everywhere is a loving tribute to a man who was the quintessential “fly on the wall,” waiting for moments to unfold and capturing them with a naturalism and skill that’s nothing short of dazzling.
