\u201cFraming Privacy,\u201d with Prof. Jason Schulman<\/strong>
In 2013, photographer Arne Svenson exhibited his latest work, Neighbors<\/em>, a series of photographs he had taken of his Manhattan neighbors through their apartment windows. Some neighbors were outraged at what they felt was an invasion of their privacy and took Svenson to court.  What does the right to privacy mean? Should Svenson have been allowed to photograph his neighbors without their consent and to create an art exhibition of these photographs? To understand how the judges approached the case, we\u2019ll need to understand how the right to privacy developed in the United States, particularly in New York state.  Jason Schulman is adjunct instructor in History at John Jay College and the Fall 2020 Judith S. Kaye Fellow in the Humanities and the Law at BHSEC Queens, thanks to a grant from the Historical Society of the New York Courts<\/a>. He earned his PhD from Emory University.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
