              REVIEWS

"Most New Yorkers know what public housing looks like from the outside, but a bracingly simple compilation of pictures takes us into the interiors of the buildings and thus into the residents' startingly ordinary lives."

     -- The New York Times

"Beautiful...an unprecedented and intimate look into the lives of New York City public housing residents."

     -- BuzzFeed

"The program started by George Carrano, Chelsea Davis and Jonathan Fisher gave photography training and equipment to NYCHA residents and encourged them to take photos of their homes -- their families and neighbors, their decorations and furnishings, and the social events at the core of their community....Whether or not NYCHA can make a comeback will have a crucial bearing on what the future of America's safety net looks like."

     -- Politico Magazine

"A startlingly simple and optimistic portrait of family, friends, and neighbors....There's nothing really specific about the projects in Project Lives.  It's just life."

     -- New York Magazine

"A photography book on life in public housing seen through the eyes of its inhabitants...aiming to change the negative perceptions of their living conditions and culture."

     -- TIME
