50年拍5万姑娘，他才是真正的街拍鼻祖

Bill Cunningham, the New York fashion photographer known for his shots of emerging trends on the streets of New York City, died on Saturday at age of 87 after being hospitalized for a stroke, the New York Times reported.

比尔·坎宁汉是一位大名鼎鼎的纽约时尚摄影师，非常善于用镜头捕捉纽约大街上的时尚潮流。据《纽约时报》报道，87岁的坎宁汉于上周六去世了。此前，他已因中风住进医院。

He was known for wearing his trademark blue jacket and riding around on his bicycle with a small camera bag strapped to his waist. Cunningham worked for the New York Times for nearly 40 years, operating 'as a dedicated chronicler of fashion and as an unlikely cultural anthropologist,' the newspaper said.

坎宁汉因为经常身穿标志性蓝夹克、腰系小摄像机包、蹬着自行车穿行在大街小巷而闻名，他已为《纽约时报》工作近40年，被报纸评为“甘于奉献的时尚记录者和不可思议的文化人类学家”。

After serving in the Army, Cunningham wrote fashion pieces for the Chicago Tribune and started taking photographs of people on the streets. A chance photograph of Greta Garbo got the attention of the New York Times and in 1978 he began publishing a regular series of photographs in the paper - eventually becoming one of the most influential figures in the fashion world.
