Martha: A Picture Story

If you ever find yourself going through classic photos of New York City subways (with whole train cars sprayed with graffiti) chances are, they were were captured by Martha Cooper. In a career that spans over six decades, she's always had her eyes on the streets, documenting graffiti and the burgeoning culture of hip hop since its birth in the 1970s. A new documentary titled, Martha Cooper: A Picture Story by Selina Miles has been released on VOD platforms and a special edition Blue-Ray will be out in May 2021.
