NEW YORK - Robert Frank, a trailblazing documentary photographer whose raw, piercing aesthetic placed him among the 20th century's greats, has died, according to his gallery. He was 94 years old.
The Swiss-born photographer rose to fame with the publication of his landmark book The Americans, an unflinching look at the society of the United States that proved hugely influential.
A spokesperson from the Manhattan gallery Pace/MacGill said Frank died overnight of natural causes in Inverness, Nova Scotia, Canada.
