Jim Alexander is a son of New Jersey, but his love for New York -- particularly Harlem -- kept him on trains and crossing the bridge to explore his favorite city. From his teen years when he was old enough to ride the train alone, to 1968 when he met his mentor Gordon Parks, and 1974, when the Studio Museum of Harlem held his debut exhibition, "Duke and Other Legends," New York City proved to be pivotal for Alexander. Those trips built a stunning collection that he turned into "Harlem U.S.A.," a photozine published in 2024.
In "People Watching (1966)," a woman and her dog, perched peacefully in their window, enjoy taking in the sights and sounds of the city.
