Boyd Lewis chronicled an often unsettling era of change and progress in Atlanta in the 1970s from his distinctly subversive perch within Atlanta’s alternative press. That important era in the city’s evolution came alive anew through “Flashback: Atlanta in the 70s, The Photography of Boyd Lewis,” an exhibition at the Margaret Mitchell House. Featuring 60 images and three videos, the exhibition was on view at the Atlanta History Center-operated Margaret Mitchell House in 2016. Lewis moved to Atlanta in 1969, and wrote and reported for the Atlanta Voice, the Atlanta Inquirer, radio station WABE and CNN. Flashback: Atlanta in the 70s was drawn from and showcased the Boyd Lewis photographs housed in the Kenan Research Center at the Atlanta History Center, which began with a gift in 1985. In April 2016, Lewis enhanced the collection with roughly 15,000 images.
