  • Jacob Riis (1849—1914) was a crusading journalist who brought New York City's overcrowded, decrepit slums to the consciousness and conscience of middle-class America. Best known for his photograph-filled 1890 book, How the Other Half Lives, Riis spurred housing, school, and neighborhood reforms in cities throughout the United States.
