A revolutionary documentary photographer, Abbott was born in
Springfield, Ohio, in 1898, and studied for one year at Ohio State
University, Columbus, before moving to New York in 1918 to study
sculpture. While in New York, Abbott met Marcel Duchamp and Man
Ray, two of the founders of the Dada movement”"
