He was amazing. I saw the exhibit of rarely seen Weegee's at the ICP in NYC last year, some with his notes still written on them. Also a newspaper he began because he thought the mainstream media wasn't up to the job. It was very cool.

There was also an exhibit of wonderful photos by a South Korean Photographer who does REALLY long exposures, like 24 hours. They were incredibly beautiful.
