Anthony LaSala and Seth Kusher have spent the last two years creating their Brooklynites project which has documented the famous (like Spike Lee, Rosie Perez, Steve Buscem) and less-famous residents of the borough. There are dozens of wonderful portaits - in images and words. The guys behind it say:
With this project, we wanted to sever the Brooklyn below that sky. Get beneath the facade, the name, the stories, the reputation, and the place we grew up in. We wanted to find out who the people were and what they loved, hated and added to this historic locale. What we found was a place and a gathering of people that are so much more than their illustrious repute.
What a project.
