Smarthistory has been fortunate in having some great contributors, like David Drogin, Shana Lindsay and Chad Laird. Recently, we were joined by Juliana Kreinik, who specializes in German photography of the 1920s. A few weeks ago, we created our first two videos with Julie — here’s one, on a great image by Umbo (Otto Umbehr).
