His images documented the ethnography of various American classes and cultures. LifeThe son of Burton Lee and wife Adeline Werner, Lee grew up in Ottawa, Illinois and went to the Culver Military Academy in Culver, Indiana for high school. He earned a degree in chemical engineering from Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.[3] He gave up a position as a chemist to become a painter. Originally he used photography as a precursor to his painting, but soon became interested in photography for its own sake, recording the people and places around him. Among his earliest subjects were Pennsylvanian bootleg mining and the Father Divine cult.[3] In the fall of 1936, during the Great Depression, Lee was hired for the federally sponsored Farm Security Administration (FSA) photographic documentation project of the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration. He joined a team assembled under Roy Stryker, along with Dorothea Lange, Arthur Rothstein and Walker Evans. Stryker provided direction and bureaucratic protection to the group, leaving the photographers free to compile what in 1973 was described as "the greatest documentary collection which has ever been assembled."[4] Lee created some of the iconic images produced by the FSA, including photographic studies of San Augustine, Texas in 1939, and Pie Town, New Mexico in 1940. Over the spring and summer of 1942, Lee was one of several government photographers to document the eviction of Japanese Americans from the West Coast, producing over 600 images of families waiting to be removed and their later life in various detention facilities.[5] After the FSA was defunded in 1943, Lee served in the Air Transport Command (ATC), during which he took photographs of all the airfield approaches used by the ATC to supply the Armed Forces in World War II. He worked for the United States Department of the Interior (DOI) in 1946 and 1947, helping the agency compile a medical survey in the communities involved in mining bituminous coal. He created over 4,000 photographs of miners and their working conditions in coal mines.[6] In 1946, Lee completed a series of photos focused on a Pentecostal Church of God in a Kentucky coal camp.[7] While completing the DOI work, Lee also continued to work under Stryker, producing public relations photographs for Standard Oil of New Jersey.[4] In 1947 Lee moved to Austin, Texas and continued photography. In 1965 he became the first instructor of photography at the University of Texas.[4] LegacyIn addition to the materials at the University of Louisville, other important collections of Lee's work are held by the New Mexico Museum of Art,[8] Wittliff collections, Texas State University[9] and the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History at the University of Texas at Austin.[10] In 2016, Lee Elementary, a school in the Austin Independent School District, was renamed Russell Lee Elementary in honor of the photographer, replacing the original namesake, Robert E Lee.[11][12] Selected photographsReferences1. ^{{cite web |url=https://nyx.uky.edu/fa/findingaid/?id=xt7r7s7hr44k |title=Russell Lee Photographic Collection |website=Explore UK |publisher=University of Kentucky |access-date=July 19, 2018 }} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Russell Lee Biography|url=https://www.cah.utexas.edu/ssspot/bio.php|publisher=University of Texas at Austin|access-date=July 22, 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Russell Lee|url=http://www.iub.edu/~iuam/online_modules/fsa/fsaartists.html|work=The People's America Farm Security Administration Series|publisher=Indiana University Art Museum|accessdate=February 13, 2012}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|last=Hurley|first=F.
