All About Photo Presents 'When I Arrived' by Dave Jordano

Posted on October 01, 2026

In early 1972, at just twenty-four years old, Dave Jordano was a photography student at the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit. Armed with a 35mm camera and the curiosity of someone still discovering what photography might mean to him, he began photographing in and around the city. For roughly a year, he moved through Detroit and its surrounding neighborhoods, making pictures as assignments for school but also simply because he was looking. Most of those photographs were never printed. Inst

Eve Arnold: All about Eve

From Hollywood stars and political figures to children, workers, fashion models and people living in some of the most remote places in the world, Eve Arnold spent more than five decades looking closely at people. Her photographs are often intimate, sometimes quiet and occasionally unexpected, but they are rarely distant. For Arnold, photography was not simply about recording what was happening in front of her. It was a way of getting closer to people and trying to understand them. From 19 Sep
