Philadelphia-based photographer Jack T. Franklin was just a teenager when he first picked up a camera. Born in 1922, Franklin served as a photographer in the U.S. Army during WWII and later spent decades as a freelance photojournalist documenting social and political issues, including the civil rights movement. 

Franklin passed away in 2009. Thousands more of his images of African-American life are held in

the permanent collection of the African-American Museum in Philadelphia.
