Woodson Honor BookA Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People 2007Recipient of the 2007 Storytelling World Award Honor TitleGordon Parks' mother told him, 'What a white boy can do, you can too--and no excuses.' At age sixteen, while working as a steward on the Northern Pacific Railroad, he discovered he wanted to be a photographer when he borrowed someone's Life magazine. The photographs of poor families were very disheartening to him; however, the photographs of Parisian fashions sparked his curiosity. Later, when he noticed a Life camera bag belonging to a train passenger, he got the courage to ask the photographer, Mr. Capa, about his job.Although he grew up in poverty and faced many obstacles while pursuing his dreams, Parks' talent and perseverance always prevailed. He studied photographs, visited art museums, and read books about photography for years until finally he bought a camera and started taking pictures. His career officially started when a clerk in a camera shop saw his work and was so impressed that he gave him his own exhibit. Twelve years later, he became the first black photographer for Life magazine. Later he became a successful novelist, director, producer, screenwriter, and music composer.
