This exhibit will feature 50 photographs by Danny Lyon, a renowned 1960s documentary photographer and filmmaker who famously chronicled the activities of the Chicago Outlaws motorcycle club from 1963 to 1967. It features black-and-white photographs, text by Lyon and excerpts from transcribed interviews with his fellow club members.
