Jacob Riis was a Danish-American social reformer, journalist, and photographer known for his work exposing the living conditions of the poor in late 19th-century New York City. His book "How the Other Half Lives" shed light on the squalid conditions of tenement housing and helped to bring about reforms in urban housing and living conditions for the poor.
