"New York in the 70s is a personal collection of photographs that documents an exciting chapter in New York City's history – and a remarkable body of work produced by photographer Allan Tannebaum while he was photo editor of the Soho Weekly News in Manhattan. Based mainly on news and feature stories assigned by the paper, the photographs encompass many aspects of the heady exuberance of the 1970s and early 1980s… By photographing everything from street gangs to disco divas, from homeless to Hollywood stars, Tannenbaum had assembled a personal diary of his journey as a photojournalist and raconteur through a strange era in New York. His studio portrait, night-time flashes, and street photography paint a unique and often unseen picture of the 1970s in New York City."
