I would love to know the story behind this photo. Who are they? Where are they now? That's a real image of real human beings....I hope their lives worked out. They certainly had a full plate here......Centurion9

If you Google the photograph, it will take you to the Mary Ellen Mark photo essay of the Damm family as a feature in Life magazine. It is quite the read.

Seems Mary Ellen Mark has just passed away.....

 

The follow up story in 1995 is incredibly depressing...
