Humans of New York (HONY) is a photoblog and book of street portraits and interviews collected on the streets of New York City.
Started in November 2010 by photographer Brandon Stanton, Humans of New York has developed a large following through social media. As of March 2015[update], the book had spent 31 weeks on The New York Times Best Seller list.[1] Hundreds of "Humans of" blogs have since been developed by people in different cities around the world influenced by HONY.[2]
In March 2016, Stanton wrote an open letter to Donald Trump that went viral on Facebook, garnering over 2.3 million likes and over 1.1 million shares, making it one of the most-shared posts in the history of Facebook.[3]
Stanton has collected portraits in nearly 20 different countries including Bangladesh, Iran, Iraq, and Pakistan.[4] In January 2015, he interviewed U.S. president Barack Obama in the Oval Office.[5] Also in 2015, Stanton covered the European migrant crisis in partnership with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to capture and share the emotional experience of refugees in Europe fleeing wars in the Middle East.[6] In September 2016, Stanton interviewed U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.[7]
