rode L.A.’s trains last year—means that people are finding new places to hang out and ways to get around that do not mandate time on the freeway.
“I’m surprised people don’t think of L.A. as more walking-friendly,” the photographer Michelle Groskopf told me recently. “Cars are not really cognizant of you crossing, but, for the most part, there’s so much life on the street.” Groskopf moved from New York City to Los Angeles six years ago, and she brought the tradition of New York street photographers, such as Daniel Arnold, with her; she takes quirky, candid photos of pedestrians and amblers all over Los Angeles.
Groskopf lives in Hollywood and often spends Sunday mornings at the farmers’ market there, photographing hands as they go about the business of. “People have a lot of control over their face,” she said. “They give the world what they think the world wants to see. Hands and feet—they tell a lot more about who you are.” In New York, where she was a television producer and served as a professor of film at the School of Visual Arts, street photography was her “personal getaway.
What happened was just the opposite. In L.A., she said, “You have to seek it out. You have to learn to kind of be proactive, and it’s a mystery—who are these people? What’s happening in this corner? I never know anything. It’s a constant surprise.”
