I saw it on pbs video, you should sign in to that to watch it in 720p. If your out of the US, hola unblocker may work for you. It's a must watch, with lots of older footage that seemed to be kept very well or cleaned up. Beautiful images throughout it, along with notes and quotes from the subjects that really add to it all.

I particularly liked the scene where Dorothea Lange held up a negative and exclaimed something like "Would you like to look at a beautiful negative?".

I was surprised how much footage there was of Dorothea Lange talking to the camera - most of the "American Masters" programs don't offer that for deceased subjects.

A DVD will be available sometime in the spring

Brings tears to my heart

I just watched it -- great photographs, of course, and an indomitable woman. Shows like this depress me a little because they cause me to look back on my life and ask "what if" -- could I have done that, could I have dedicated myself to photography as she did, etc. Maybe we each have to take our own path.

I have watched the first half. It is really quite good and has a personal and human touch.
