Factors besides mental illness and addiction contribute to the prob-lem. There are homeless veterans; families who were evicted when their residences were foreclosed on; people with sudden medical expenses that insurance didn't cover. Job loss, divorce, death of a spouse or parent, domestic violence, discrimination based on sexual ori-entation, lack of affordable housing, etc., all drive homelessness. There are working poor who live in vehicles or tents and work full--time jobs. Most people experiencing homelessness are invisible, living doubled up with friends or family, in shelters, hospitals or Single Room Occupancy hotels. \u003cb\u003eJeffrey Wolin\u003c\/b\u003e photographs and interviews a wide swath of this vulnerable population and includes their own words directly on their por-traits to dispel our firmly--held stereotypes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJeffrey A.
