EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1917, where young Frank de Natale takes center stage as the Boy Barber. In this photograph captured by Lewis Hine, we witness a remarkable display of skill and dedication from a 12-year-old boy. With razor-sharp precision, he lathers and shaves customers at his father's barbershop in the bustling city of Boston, Massachusetts. The image transports us to an era when hard work and determination were valued above all else. As we observe Frank confidently standing behind the barber chair, it is evident that he has mastered his craft at such a tender age. The counter behind him showcases an array of tools meticulously arranged for each shave - a testament to his commitment to perfection. Lewis Hine's lens captures not only the physical labor but also the spirit of early American entrepreneurship embodied by young Frank. This photo serves as a reminder that age is no barrier when passion meets opportunity. In today's fast-paced world, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into simpler times while celebrating the resilience and tenacity of individuals like Frank de Natale who paved their own way amidst challenging circumstances.
