AMERICANSUBURB X: "Mary Ellen Mark with Constance Sullivan (1990)"

To me a documentary photographer and a photojournalist are pretty much the same thing. If I have to make a distinction, I’m more a documentary photographer–I don’t think of myself as a photo-essayist in the sense that I always consider a magazine layout when I’m working. To be honest with you, I always try to think of the specific pictures. What’s important to me is to make strong, individual pictures.
