Oh! Treena. Another thing I almost forgot. Visit the Prints and Photographs
Division of the Library of Congress! It's in the Jefferson Annex just in
back of the main LoC building. You can browse the entire FSA archive in row
upon row of filing cabinets, and you can order original portfolios from just
about any photographer you could possibly name to be brought up for you to
look at. It's the most accessible photography collection in the U.S. I spent
many hundreds of happy hours there (a guard saw me leaving at the end of the
day once and blurted out, "Jesus Christ, do you _live_ here?" <g>)
If you go to the zoo, and it's a nice day, be aware that you can pick up the
Rock Creek bike path at the back of the zoo and (going right/south) walk
through Rock Creek Park down to Georgetown. It's a nice walk and it's
amazing how "natural" it seems for being smack dab in the middle of a city.
