A lifelong photographic artist, Rosella turned his lens to his hometown for his new book, “Pittsburgh Streets 1950s.”

This remarkable collection of photographs showcases the images Rosella took while he was a young man exploring Pittsburgh neighborhoods and as a student at the University of Pittsburgh in the 1950s. Rosella will join Linda Benedict-Jones, photographer, writer, and independent curator, for a conversation on the book and to share insights into his process, compositions, and more.
