She is a nanny, never married, has no home, and has no relatives. She drifted from one family to another, and this lonely life probably deserved such a dull and miserable end. But she used a pair of Rolleis to record countless faces, happy or sad, bright or tragic. She also recorded the changes of the times for more than half a century. Of course, people also remember her through this pair of cameras. She is a mysterious woman who has worked as a nanny all her life, but is recognized by the photography world as one of the greatest photographers of our time. She roamed the streets, took 100,000 photos, never published them, never showed them to anyone, and never even watched them after taking them. These 100,000 photos have become the whole of her life.

A life of arrogance can even be called self-appreciation, living in one's own world, not wanting or being understood by others. The moment when the camera clicked was probably the happiest moment for her. She captures the world she sees and experiences into her camera and seals it. She is not talkative and expressive, but every photo records her thoughts and moods. As the times have progressed, each of us has become a Vivienne Maier. We no longer need to hold a Rollei, nor do we need to have a DSLR on hand at all times. When we meet what we want to record, we just need to take out our mobile phone and tap it. Perhaps witnessing this era is so simple, but who can be as persistent, stubborn, and persistent as Vivian Maier...
