Gangland murders, gruesome car crashes and perilous tenement fires were the staples of Weegee s flashlit black-andwhite§work as a freelance press photographer in the mid 1930s. These graphic and sometimes sensationalistic photos§of New York crimes and news events set the standard for what has since become known as tabloid journalism.§Taking its title from Weegee s self curated exhibition at the Photo League in 1941, Murder Is My Business examines§the urban violence and mayhem that was the focus of his early work. Challenged to capture unique images of§newsworthy events and distribute them quickly, Weegee would listen to his police band radio receiver for news of fresh§crimes and often arrive at crime scenes before the police themselves, allowing him to case each scene and create the§best composition. Murders, he claimed, were the easiest to photograph because the subjects never moved or became§temperamental.§Murder Is My Business features Weegee s most famous images in the context of their original presentation in period§newspapers and exhibitions, as well as Weegee s own books and films. The book also presents case studies of various§crimes photographed by Weegee including original documents from police dossiers, and partial reconstructions of§Weegee s studio and his Photo League exhibition.§Weegee (Arthur Fellig, 1899 1968) is best known for his tabloid news photos of urban crowds, crime scenes and§New York City nightlife of the 1930s and 1940s. Between 1935 and 1946, Weegee was perhaps the most relentlessly§inventive figure in American photography. Weegee later dedicated himself to what he called creative photography ,§images made through distorting lenses and other optical effects. He also made short films and collaborated with film§directors such as Jack Donohue and Stanley Kubrick, as a special-effects consultant and still photographer.
