  3. Photos By Philip Trager At Fairfield Museum

    In his decades-long career, acclaimed photographer Phillip Trager usually created his photos as a visceral reaction. He didn't set out to shoot a particular building, instead stopping on his wanderings to shoot ones he saw and liked. He didn't know how he would shoot his models; he waited for them to do something visually irresistible. He didn't know when he would shoot dancers, he just let them dance in front of him and waited for just the right moment.
