The Little Dollar's Christmas Journey - Short Takes: An Aural Journey -- (Short Stories for All)

Jacob A. Riis was a Danish-American journalist, photographer, and social reformer who sought to shed light on the living conditions of the impoverished in New York City during the late 19th century. Riis's most notable work is "How the Other Half Lives," a book published in 1890 that used his photographs and investigative journalism to expose the squalid conditions of the tenements in which many poor immigrants lived. Riis's work contributed to a growing awareness of the challenges faced by the urban poor. His advocacy for change was influential in the development of housing regulations and improvements in living conditions for those in poverty.
