The American photojournalist Arthur Fellig (Weegee is his pseudonym) became famous for his reports on New York's nightlife during the Great Depression and Prohibition era. He photographed for crime chronicles and Hollywood, showing the most unsavory aspects of human life. This is precisely what attracted viewers: stunned by his works, they often forgot about their own problems.
