Editing Paul Strand (section)

===Photo League===
Strand was one of the founders of the [[Photo League]], an association of photographers who advocated using their art to promote social and political causes. Strand and [[Elizabeth McCausland]] were "particularly active" in the League, with Strand serving as "something of an elder statesman."  Both Strand and McCausland were "clearly left-leaning," with Strand "more than just sympathetic to Marxist ideas."  Strand, McCausland, [[Ansel Adams]], and [[Nancy Newhall]] all contributed to the League's publication, ''Photo News''.<ref name=Robinson>{{cite book| first = Gerald H. | last = Robinson| title = Photography, History & Science| publisher = Carl Mautz Publishing| url = https://books.google.com/books?id=-NeC2Rmb1jYC| pages = 38 (Photo League), 43 (documentarian), 91 (Realism), 111 (influence on Ansel Adams)| date = 2006| isbn = 9781887694278| access-date = 23 June 2020}}</ref>
