*Echele Ganas photographs were made over the course of 6 years with many visits to villages of Mexico Sierra Norte de Puebla, whose sons and daughters Laurence had met in Philadelphia.
The remittances sent by people from this region working in the US has helped to improve the local economy and caused a building boom generating many needed jobs for those that stayed behind.
**These are photographs made by Salzmann in the village of Santa Isabel Xiloxoxtla, located on the lower slopes of the extinct Malinche Volcano and were made during the summer of 1969 when Salzmann lived in that village while participating in a summer field training program for anthropologist sponsored by the University of Pittsburgh.
