I have just come across this lovely site. USA artist, Joe Manning, has been tracking down the descendants of some of the children photographed by Lewis Hine. See http://www.morningsonmaplestreet.com/lewishine.html for interviews and stories.
Dr Karen Wells researches the impact of globalisation on childhood and the material and visual cultures of childhood. She is the author of Childhood in a Global Perspective (Polity Press 2015, 2nd edition )and has published widely on childhood and visual representation. She recently completed research on international private fostering. She is currently working on a book on childhood subjectivites (Polity, forthcomiing). You can find out more about my research at http://www.bbk.ac.uk/geds/our-staff/full-time-academic-staff/wells
