Abstract: The photographs of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information Photograph Collection form an extensive pictorial record of American life between 1935 and 1944. This volume publishes 157 rejected or 'killed' images submitted to the collection by photographers. The author uses these images to raise questions of why images would be 'killed' and to suggest that our present society would benefit from a similar photographic record of American life.
