I remember that photo well (doesn’t everyone?), but had never looked into who took it.

Ah! Yes, like @elGordo, I remember that image very well, but never looked into the photographer… Thanks!
Allan Sekula, a tremendously honest and hard working artist. Had the incredible proviledge of assisting him for a couple days.

My dad got me interested in photography . He didn’t do loads of photos but he loved his cameras. He gad a darkroom … well not a darkroom just a blacked out space under the stairs of the terraced house we lived in. When he died a few years ago I scanned all his old negs brought back some good memories.
As for well known photographers . I don’t necessarily think any have inspired me. I like a streetie shot and maybe indirectly I admired Martin Parr over the years without necessarily knowing who he was.
Parr did a cracking shot of Burnden Park. The former home of my football team Bolton Wanderers 
. I could quite easily have been one of the people in the shot below
