Rachel Geschwind will give a talk entitled "New York Fairytales: Helen Levitt's Portraits of Children."
7 p.m.
Epperson Auditorium.
The lecture is in conjunction with the photography exhibit "Hide and See: Picturing Childhood" at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, which is on view through Feb. 21.
Geschwind will offer an interpretation of Levitt's photographs as folk literature and the debate over fairytales in the dawn of child psychology in the 1940s.
