Annemarie Schwarzenbach: Photographs of Knoxville, Tennessee, 1937
Annemarie Schwarzenbach visited Knoxville, Tennessee in the fall of 1937. She found there class disparity that she would document in her essay “On the Shadowy Side of Knoxville.”
“[Knoxville is] a city with shops and cinemas, a Main Street ablaze with light, and dark quarters where the workers of hosiery factories have to live in sheer poverty.”
