Fred W. McDarrah (1926-2007) was an American photojournalist renowned for documenting the social, cultural, and political landscape of the downtown and New York City generally from the 1950s through the 1980s. He was an author and a staff photographer for The Village Voice. His late wife Gloria, late son Timothy, and son Patrick have supported Village Preservation greatly and provided these photographs that document our collective cultural history.
