First sentence: As the history of twentieth-century African-American photographers continues to unfold and to be written, space will have to be reserved for Morgan and Marvin Smith, remarkable Kentucky-born twins whose lives spanned much of the twentieth century and whose images offer a unique perspective on New York City's Harlem in the decades following the fabled Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s.
