"To those who rushed past Mr. Forss on Midtown Manhattan sidewalks, he was just another street peddler. But that all changed in 1980, when the renowned photojournalist David Douglas Duncan encountered him near Grand Central Terminal and was riveted by his work. A former staff photographer for Life magazine, Mr. Duncan decided to use his influence to promote Mr. Forss.
Mr. Duncan published a photography book, “New York/New York: Masterworks of a Street Peddler,” through McGraw-Hill in 1984, and it made Mr. Forss a sensation."-nyt.
