Edwin helped to explain to her that Graffiti is an art form and that each artist was actually writing his/her nickname. You can spend a good day just looking at the artwork, studying the all the intricate and clever details hidden between the vibrant and lively splashes of color. And there are a ton of graffiti books on the subject, so much so that after nearly 50 years, there are new titles each year that build even more lore of graffiti's impact. Produced by Chalfant and Max Hergenrother, it is the first volume of a multi-volume archive comprising his entire collection of subway graffiti photographs.

The e-books are published by Sleeping Dog Films, which primarily archives the photographer's over 800 photos of New York City Subway graffiti. Henry Chalfant (born January 2, 1940) is an American photographer and videographer most notable for his work on graffiti, breakdance, and hip hop culture. The archive series was renamed Henry Chalfant's Graffiti Archive: New York City's Subway Art and Artists in 2013. Los Angeles had its own unique street culture, whether low-riders, graffiti or fashion, much of the truly originality coming from East Los Angeles.

Her photographs have appeared in National Geographic, Smithsonian and Natural History magazines as well as several dozen books and journals. This is when Martha met Dondi, the first one who allowed her to accompany him; while Dondi was tagging she would take photos of his art.
