A few weeks ago, 83-year-old photographer Ken Heyman received a call from the office of his former agent, Woodfin Camp. They had photographs of Heyman's in a storage facility that was closing, and he needed to retrieve them.

In one box was a folder marked “Mothers.” Many of these photographs were done for a book Heyman created with anthropologist Margaret Mead in 1965 called Family, which was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize the same year.
