Connell wrote a few books. One called "About Photography" was published in 1949. I was given a copy by Will Jr. and I enjoyed it thoroughly. A number of aphorisms stand out. Here's a good one:

"Every medium suffers from its own particular handicap. Photography's greatest handicap is the ease with which the medium as such can be learned. As a result, too many budding neophytes learn to speak the language too long before they have anything to say."

So true. I like that guy.
