Street Photographer "Discovered" after death

Vivian Maier Video
Vivian Maier Blog
quote from Chicago Tonight, 22nd December:
"We learn the amazing story of Vivian Maier, a Chicago nanny who took more than 100,000 photos during her lifetime but never showed them to anyone. Now that she's gone and her photos have been discovered, some say she may rank among the top street photographers of the 20th century."
And a 'blog scanning some of the 100,000 photos found! Incredible. Just amazing that this woman, a nanny, spent all her days off taking photos. And never showed anybody a single picture.
Ironically came across this on a watch forum, think g3org3y might be interested, hopefully a few of you might want to have a look.
