Here is a small little documentary and a photo slide show of Arthur Fellig, better known as Weegee who gave New York the name the Naked City. He was an iconic crime photographer from the mid 1930's to postwar years in America.

"Weegee's photos from the 1930s and '40s defined Manhattan as a film noir nightscape of gansters, bums, slumming swells and tenement dwellers." NYTimes Quote.
