Colin O'Brien: London Life

Working in collaboration with Spitalfields Life, a modern twist is put on an old tradition. Three photographers who have documented London over the years share their favourite images and stories in conversations with Stefan Dickers, Bishopsgate Instutute’s Library and Archives Manager.

Colin O’Brien: London Life

Born in Clerkenwell in 1940 Colin O’Brien began documenting the city and the people around him from an early age. From taking pictures of his friends with a Box Brownie at the age of 8 to using a Leica as a teenager, Colin has recorded the theatre of London life ever since. His latest book LONDON LIFE has just been published by Spitalfields Life Books.
