As a photographer I enjoy learning about other amazing photographers and their careers. And the documentary, American Masters–Pedro E. Guerrero: A Photographer’s Journey was exciting to watch.
VOCES and American Masters first time collaboration in presenting the remarkable life and work of Pedro E. Guerrero (1917-2012), a Mexican American, born and raised in segregated Mesa, Arizona, who had an extraordinary international photography career.
The program explores his collaborations with three of the most iconic American artists of the 20th century: architect Frank Lloyd Wright and sculptors Alexander Calder and Louise Nevelson.
American Masters–Pedro E. Guerrero: A Photographer’s Journey premieres September 18 at 9P on PBS (check local listings) during National Hispanic Heritage Month. —A.O.
